THE LEGEND OF THE SAND DOLLAR
Here's a lovely story
that so many men will tell,
of the life and death of Jesus
etched upon this lonely little shell.
You will find an image here
of four nails and then another
from a Roman's sharpened spear.
One side shows the Easter lily
with its center as a star,
that shined brightly for the shepherds,
as they traveled from afar.
And the yuletide poinsettia
painted on the other side
tells us Christ was born on Christmas,
and wore our cross until He died.
You will find the sign of peace,
five white doves in gleaming beauty,
will its wonders never cease!
So you see the simple story,
Jesus lived for you and me.
To carry on His work on earth,
to love humanity.
