THAT SPECIAL TIME OF YEAR HAS ARRIVED WHEN JOSEPH’S PEOPLE GATHER TOGETHER TO CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS
COME ONE, COME ALL |
Naming the Baby What a name to give a newborn child. Jesus. Don’t they know he’ll have to wear it all his life? Bill or Robert would be easier to carry through the years and up that final hill. A man named Jesus has a saddle on him from the first day on. They might as well have called him Marvin or Jean-Claude. Whoever heard of Frank or Fred being strung out on a cross. Mothers never think of things like that. How many kids named Elvis will grow up wondering? A man needs all the help there is in later life, just to stay anonymous in crowds. Don’t our fathers know a man named Jesus or Rene’ will draw K.P. because he sticks out from the rest? Those of us who wanted to would still have known him from the other Jims Those of us who needed gentlemen would still have found him out. Rod McKuen |
