An Easter Poem

Children searching in the courtyard
For treasures hidden among the rocks
Early morning dew on the grass
Seeping through their shoes and socks

Their eyes shine brighter as they find
Candy colored treats for them to keep
It’s a special day, but do they
Really understand what it means

Yes, it’s a day of joy and love
A day that’s overflowing with glee
But it’s a day that was given
As a gift for both you and me

We call this occasion Easter
Because Jesus returned on this day
So the flowers would bloom and rise
And the children could run and play

-Lacy Boosinger

God does not love us because we are valuable.
We are valuable because He loves us.
By Fulton John Sheen
