Not Too Poetry

Did Jesus whistle?

I mean while he worked and when walking.

Just him and you, and the work, and the walk.

Did he learn that from watching Joseph? I think he did.

Did Jesus sing?

I mean while he washed and when he cooked.

Just him and you in the routines of life.

Did he learn that from watching Mary? I think he did.

And did he ever worry about being off key?

Or was he embarrassed at being overheard?

I think not. I think he took pleasure in life, in song, in whistling.

And I think his disciples learned that too,

from watching him.

(We should whistle more I think.)
