Sand Dollar poem for my niece.

Sand Dollars are very fragile, so you have to be very careful with them because they will break easy. I took one of the common verses about the Sand Dollar and made a poem that you will find below, for my niece. I found one of the common verses to prelude into another common verse about footprints in the sand, but I did not do a prelude poem leading into that other verse about footprints in the sand. I will do it later. Hope you like this.



WITH MY SAND DOLLAR



I WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOU ABOUT



JESUS CHRIST AND REBECCA AT THE WELL



FOUND IN THIS LOVELY SHELL







LOOK CLOSER AND



YOU WILL SEA



FOUR EAR RINGS AND A STONE



MADE BY A ROMAN'S HAND







ON ONE SIDE IS THE EASTER LILY



ON THE OTHER SIDE IS



THE POINSETTIA ETCHED



A STAR IN THE CENTER







TO THE SHEPHERDS APPEARED



A STAR THAT TOOK THEM TO ISREAL



THIS REMINDS US OF JESUS CHRIST,



OUR HAPPY CHRISTMASTIDE







THE LOVELY SHELL BROKE OPEN,



ACCIDENTLY ONE DAY



RELEASED WERE FIVE WHITE DOVES



NOWHERE TO GO, BUT TO TELL THE NEWS







THIS POEM



WAS LEFT FOR US



TO UNDERSTAND



WHEN A GIFT BREAKS





WHEN JESUS HEARD OF THIS



ACCIDENTAL GIFT BREAKING



HE RELEASED FIVE WHITE DOVES



BY THE BROKEN SHELL



HE MADE A LOVELY BOTTLE




NOW WHAT YOU SEA ARE



FOUR EAR RINGS, A STONE,



A BOTTLE, AND FIVE WHITE DOVES



ALL MADE BY AND FROM A ROMAN'S HAND


I can’t find, on line, a hand blown glass example of a Sand Dollar Bottle with Chain.
