My Easter

So many years, so long ago, Jesus beckoned us to go. To hear His message loud and clear, we'll hear it better through both ears. The thoughts He shares may bring us tears, although little reason for any fears. Forgiveness all, who confess our sins, proclaim to others with no chagrin. For some who wait too long, you see, means wasted joy that makes us free. Peace of mind once we've been blessed accepting Jesus, a worthy quest. My tale of God, and Jesus too, companions of a Spirit true. All remain to ease the way, on this dear earth till judgement day. My life has mellowed well with age, a smarter me since I have engaged. Prayers for all, who believe it's true, we ask for God to see them through. I know this day faith leads the way, with open hearts and minds at play. Others, who never see the light, perhaps some day they'll know John's right. John Wilkinson Easter Spring 2011
