JOHN THE BAPTIST

 

June 24th

 

“John the Baptist”

 

 

Today is the feast

Of Jesus’ cousin, John

He was a forerunner

To Jesus’ message

Of peace and love

But he taught

In a way

Of fire and brimstone

 

He tried to

Prepare the way

For Jesus

He tried

To do what is right

He was rewarded

For his efforts

By someone

Cutting off his head

 

John had many followers

He even baptized Jesus

He was Jesus’ cousin

He was Jesus’

Forerunner in love

Today is also the birthday of a very good friend, John W, who along with his wife,

Helped me with a kind gesture along the way.  God bless you John
