When I was a child in elementary school at St. Mary's Star of The Sea, the Nuns taught us to put the capital initials J M J at the top center of every page that we wrote. It was a constant repetitious reminder of The Holy Family ... Jesus Mary Joseph. I never forgot it. In essence, is it not what Life ia all about? FAMILY & LOVE ...

Jesus: God became man so he could be close to us and tell us His plan. Man: Some cannot believe how much God loves us so many turn away and become blind. God's plan: To forgive us and give us eternal life with Him that is wonderful, gracious and kind. Thank you for your wonderful poems Tom and have a Merry time celebrating CHRIST birthday for the Lord is with us. Amen!

Guess I am your sixth review again...but I found this compelling and never knew of Joseph being the Patron Saint of Fathers...I never paid attention to the nuns of St Joseph's Catholic school when I went there for my first 6 years...Nice write, Tom...your cuz' -e-

Wonderful Tribute to Joseph - Who Truly Doesn't Get Much Credit or Mention This Time of Year. And those Nuns were something else - I still remember mine from grade school.

As for your pic, those adorable dogs surely don't have fleas - but if they do, they are Blessed Fleas!

As far as what little I know of the Roman Catholic Church, it seems like the Virgin Mary gets all the credit� Even more than Jesus. Like the others have said, it's about time that gentle Joseph gets a little credit and you've done that for him.

You now have four reviews this time. I'll have to check and see if I was one of those skipping religious poems at that time.

A most apt and timely poem, Tom; nicely done. Coincidentally, I shared a version of the song, "Mary Did You Know" a few days ago. I cannot recall if I sent it to you. Love and peace to you,

I don't think Joseph gets enough credit for being such a wonderful man and father. Much enjoyed your poem of tribuite to him.
