SPRING   POEM
Spring is the season when Jesus
Died
Full of agony, but never cried.
Jesus died for all of us
To save the world from all the fuss.
When Jesus rose from the dead
"Thanks be to God", Mary said
Full of joy
Praying  and praying for her brave boy.
P. McGoldrick

Jesus rose from the dead

When Jesus rose from the dead
"I don't believe it," the apostles said
White as the light of day,
For our sin that he may save,
But Thomas didn't believe,
Until he witnessed his holes in his knees
Unlike Thomas we believe
Christians is the name that we breathe
We believe Jesus died for us
So pray for him if you must.

E. Delaney.

The Way of Christ
Mary Magdalene was the first
To see Jesus rise from the dead.
The apostle's hearts with joy did burst
They saw the holes in his feet
And thorns in his head.
This gave courage to Jesus friends.
To spread his word
So hearts would mend.

S. Devers. 5 class.
