Easter Egg Hunt

I’m devising an Easter egg hunt

it’s a giggle

as I had to squeeze into some spots

with a wiggle

too cunningly hide the eggs

with some guile

as my children have been at this

for quite a while

Easter unexpected

Good Friday came up quickly

as it was in disguise

so the long weekend of Easter

kind of took me by surprise

Mind you it is a nice one

to get when least expected

four days to enjoy once more

most welcome and respected

Easter Memories

Poetry challenge: Easter poem.
.
We waited for the Easter Bunny
like we did for Santa Claus,
but he would bring the gift of spring
with his soft, little bunny paws.

We did the prep work hopefully
thinking nothing of the chore,
like colouring pretty Easter eggs
and decorations for the door.

Easter smiled

Shadow of a crown of thorns
upon there on the wall
Contrasted in the brightness
sweetest thing I saw

Sweet Easter

Chocolate eggs

furry teds

marshmallow creams

confectionery ‘dreams.’

Happy Easter & Birthday, To You, Mom – form writing

Hello Grandma,

I know it seems hard

when you’re wanting to say

“I love you”

with a visit or stay.

Willingly for Me—Easter

Poetry challenge: Easter poem.

 

 

 

Christ willingly took upon himself your sins and mine that day.

In order that you and I would never pay what we deserved to pay.

In agony and pain He cried out ,”Father, forgive them, they know not what they do! ”

Even in death as His skin was scourged, His thoughts were of me and you.

Redemption (An Easter Poem)

Reflection

Poetry Challenge: Easter poem

Shadow of a crown of thorns
high up on the wall
held there in a flickering light
sweetest thing I saw
Around me people quietly prayed
the Spirit, moving, felt
a whispered word, a silent prayer
shared as people knelt

Via Dolorosa

Poetry challenge: Easter poem.



I see my Lord, the Way, the Truth and the Life
He moveth on wearing a crown of thorns, carrying a cross
I see my Lord crawling on the raggedy way leading to Calvary
the blood from his forehead smarting His eyes.

Tulip’s Color Spring

Like a drink that refreshes is the colors of the tulip.

A bountiful crop of these is sure to please in spring.

As red’s will simulate roses with sugared romance.

Easter Evening

Jan Richardson paintedprayerbook.com

Our flawed feet
if left to themselves
will run in two ways at once
Run west away from what was
Run east back to what might be
So running we neither reach
where we’d be nor
where we were 

Easter day yellow

Forsythia yellow leapt to life
On Easter Sunday morn
Dead throughout the winter
Today it was reborn

“With Mary at the Tomb” Easter Prompt

The milk and honey poured from His

Perfect and tamed lips…

 

Resting upon the shore and distant hills

His eyes rescued the withering souls

Who cried out and spoke

Son of David!

I guess I laid an egg
by what I’ve done
This sweet chocolate Easter bunny
hollow atonement proffered excuses

Bright Happy Future (Poetry challenge: Easter Bunny)

Warm tickles of the sun,
in egg-yolk-yellow.
I rest my eyelids shut,
as if assuring world around me
that
I’m fine.
Inhale the breeze,
soak in the fluffy clouds,
