Some of us in the Northeast are still awaiting spring (New Hampshire had snow Wednesday night). But we welcome much needed reminder of resurrection coming this Sunday with Orthodox Easter.
At our Easter dinner last week, we gathered our daughter, son-in-law and grandson from next door. They have been shopping for our groceries, so we have contact with them when they deliver. We almost did not get together for a meal, but on Sunday morning, I caved. After dinner, we collectively wrote a poem.
Plastic eggs contained one piece of chocolate gleaned from the cupboard and two slips of paper. One slip had words, the other was blank. We all wrote lines on the blank papers. The last person to finish writing (our grandson) arranged the poem lines.
Easter has come
Spring into life!
Snow is gone for now
Daffodils sway
Puppies play
Smile
Turn that frown upside down
Hope
People helping people
We are loved
Peace be with you!
There are all sorts of poem trails to follow at Nix the Comfort Zone. Thanks to Molly for hosting. May you all be well and healthy and find ways to feed your souls. May resurrection from this pandemic come sooner rather than later.
