One of the twelve
Simon Peter
The son of John
Brother of Andrew
From the village of
Bethsaida
On the Sea of Galilee
Originally a fisherman
Turned to a fisher of
men
By Jesus of Galilee
Denied Christ three
times
After the crucifixion
Witness of the
ascension
Who spread the Gospels
Far and wide
And founded the
Christian church
Becoming the first
bishop
And the first Pope
Before his own
crucifixion
In godless Rome
Under Emperor
Nero Augustus Caesar.
Main feast 29th June
The Sun rules in daylight hours
Shining light across
the shadow
The Moon rules over
the tides
In their perpetual ebb
and flow
But God rules in the
heavens
In benevolence over
all below
One of the twelve
Andrew the Apostle
The son of John
Brother of Simon
From the village of
Bethsaida
On the Sea of Galilee
Originally a fisherman
Turned to a fisher of
men
By Jesus of Galilee
Witness of the
ascension
Who spread the gospels
Far and wide
Martyred by
crucifixion
At the city of Patras
in Achaea
Feast day 30th
November
Lughnasadh, on August 1st
Is one of the four
Gaelic seasonal festivals
Lughnasadh marks
The beginning of
autumn,
The harvest season,
And the end summer
Celebrated with
feasting,
Fairs and athletic
contests
And the offering of
First Fruits
It’s the end of my autumn days
When heavens siren
sings
And amidst a russet dawn
I hear deaths silent
wings
God sat upon his throne
In the presence of the
chosen
All was well in
paradise
It was a special day
in heaven
There was a quiet
mutter abroad
And the flutter of
Angels wings
Before a silent hush
descended
And the heavenly
chorus sings
God is on the Web waiting for your prayer
You can easily find
Him if you look around
There is no video link,
Skype or live chat
But if you have faith,
it will be profound
Of course, if an
atheist was to click the link
It would respond with “Page
not found”
