Look at a CANDY CANE, what do you see? Stripes that are RED like the BLOOD shed for me! WHITE for my Savior, Who's sinless and pure! "J" is for JESUS, My Lord that's for sure! Turn it around And a staff you will see --- Jesus, my SHEPHERD It's just a little Christmas treat, but also (did you know?) It represents our Savior born so long ago. The shape is like a "J" to symbolize His name. The white is for His life, Holy, without blame. And the stripe of red is for His blood so pure and freely given that we might spend eternity with our Lord in heaven. ANOTHER VERSION: A significant symbol of Christmas Is the Simple Candy Cane. It's shape is the crook of the Shepherd One of the first who came. The lively peppermint flavor is The regal gift of spice. The White is Jesus' purity. The Red is sacrifice. The narrow stripes are friendship. And the nearness of his love. Eternal, Sweet Compassion A gift from God above. The Candy Cane reminds us all of how much God cared. And like His Christmas gift to use It's meant to be broken and shared.

I know that this comes a little late, but I was also recently looking for this poem and found it. I just love this poem. Hopes this helps anyone who is looking. My Raggedy Ann We've played a lot together, Raggedy Ann, As playmates often do I always shared my dreams With no one else but you. Each night my prayers were whispered As I snuggled with you by my side On stormy nights, the thunder Made us cover up and hide. Now your eyes have both grown weary And your arm is slightly torn, Your cuddly body is tattered And your nose is mashed and worn. We did so much together, Raggedy Ann The years, Oh how they flew And I cherish every memory Of growing up with you. Author Unknown
