Eggs Dyed

E...Eggs dyed pretty colors in baskets
A...All nestled in pastel artificial
S...Synthetic grasses, waiting the time
T...To be hidden, then found again, yea!
E...Easter's meaning disguised ..what's needed
R...Redemption, salvation at the Cross

Sara, this reminds me of the approach I also took with that contest, mentioning the commercial "candy" part and then getting to the real meaning of Easter. Good luck with your truthful poem! LUv, Andrea
