APRIL AND EASTER
Easter is late coming in April this year
And for good weather don’t bother to cheer
Children carry a basket of paper or straw
Yes the crowd may be bigger than we ever saw
They’ll look for Easter eggs hidden in many places
Upon finding them a smile will brighten their faces
The Easter egg hunt is for what the children await
Yes most are ready to start without being late
Some eggs are eaten and others are decorated too
In different designs and colors like red green and blue
The Easter bunny looks for carrots and other things
So he can show his friends that he is still king
Flowers are starting to come but not outside for a while
And to see lilies and other flowers they’ll give us a smile
Daffodils are coming and soon will be in full bloom
But for other flowers we must wait until at least June
No need to get excited for spring its not here yet
As we wait until early June then it good weather you bet
Some folks may wear a lovely Easter bonnet
Yes they sure are nice with all the frills upon it
In the warmer areas they’ll have an Easter parade
But here to watch we stay in the sun not the shade
Good Friday is the start of our Holy celebration
As Christs resurrection is celebrated across the nation
He wore a crown of thorns as he went to Calvary
But the sins he paid for belong to you and me
He rose from the grave as he said he would do
And if his blood covers our sins we will too
Remember summer is short and soon it will be fall
So I just wish to say Happy Easter to you all.
