Best Sunday School Poems

Once again I tip the scale
And mutter, whoever invented it was a man from hell.
It was not a woman who created weights for size
For women can look past the outer shell
And search deep for what is inside.
Men must have their cake and eat it too…

The Red-Faced Sunday School Teacher

By Elton Camp

The Sunday school lesson she must teach
Jesus to Lazarus inside his tomb did reach

About the great love it did take 
From death his friend to awake

So to be sure to reach the childish heart
A question asked prior to the...

Smug little faces
Oily little faces
Sunday best clad
Little children
Listen to the old
Time tested
Tired preacher
Accepting it all
They have trouble
Thou swallowing
Accepting he had
To be nailed for
Their petty little sin











(teach a child of my ways and when they mature they shall never depart from it ~the good book~)...

Claim God created each creature
But look to the sky
And you will see why
Clouds are the greatest art teacher!...

A hush fell o'er the Little Kirk Presbyterian Congregation,
Anticipating the annual Sunday School Christmas presentation.
The solemn flock, (usually obsessed with predestination),
Relaxed in their pews to enjoy Jesus' birthday celebration!

For weeks, moms had fashioned halos, stars and angels' wings,
Also, beards, crowns and robes for the trio...

When Jesus was teaching Pre-School

My heart wants to commit.
  Oh such despair!
   But who will repair!!
    I desperately cling on to hope
     Waiting until faith shows up.

 Church bells chimes from afar

I went to Sunday school to be taught right from wrong
Taught not to question; told it was a sin to be headstrong

Differing of opinions were highly discouraged during our cultivation
So I silenced my protests; fearing their god's damnation

As the years became decades, my fear of...

We were young 
just having fun... together playing
 We got older and a little bolder we were swinging (I pushed you on the swing)
We were just two love birds flying in the wind 
We went to Sunday school together, thanking God 
For all He is...

Aunt Mary was a small and wiry mother
of six;
four by birth
and two by informal adoption.

She sang in a small querulous voice
yet spoke boldly
filled with loving EarthMother
indigenous wisdom choices.

Aunt Mary was a serenely quiet mentor
and suspiciously happy
Sunday School teacher
in our stern Christian evangelical Bible Church
where divine...

I will never forget
The Sunday school my father taught,
Sitting cross-legged on veranda floor,
English, Maths,grammar and the lot,
hours of learning till bums went sore!

His skill in maths was one to admire,
He arrived at answers like computer,
He taught us all to his hearts desire,
His love for us...

I had a red jeep once,
my husband rigged it up with
Christmas lights on the running board.
I was puffed up about it.

My grandparents had the best
Christmas lights; they were jewel-toned,
and bubbled up and down, like a lava lamp,
before lava lamps were a thing, back in
the 50's.
