She, in her Easter bonnet
Standing beneath the shade,
Alongside gentlemen in top hats
To view an Easter parade
Church bells ring distantly
Showy, white lilies sway,
Waving to sweet daffodils
On this springtime holiday
Baskets with chocolate rabbits
Jelly beans and colored eggs,
Are carried by happy children
Running by on pudgy legs
A whirl of pastel colors
Meant to delight the eye,
Like the first time seeing
A robin or a butterfly
Joyous music fills the air and
Easter dinner is on the way,
Ham and pineapple wait at home
To round out this special day!
Its water seems to have frozen
Making the lake standstill as stone
With translucent and rather peace
While shores undulating the houses
Together, are the carved sculptures
With full of silent and full of tender
For wind shaking the trees to visit
The circumstances mysteriously made
By no man walking on the streets
Should a weekend start on Friday?
No, if it hasn't been named the Easter
Things are supposed to be bona fide
For the case of humanity being reinstall
For public good and bringing hopes to all
I texted her Thanksgiving.
Asked what she’s doing for a living.
I texted her on Christmas Day.
If she was doing ok.
I sometimes admit.
That I almost quit.
Trying to reach out to old friends.
But the holidays are when hope upends.
I texted her New Year’s Eve.
It feels like I was just raking the leaves.
But the cold has settled.
I almost want to backpedal.
I text her each holiday.
With not much to say.
Using exclamation points!
Hurts my finger joints.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Happy Easter is all I can say!
Even the Fourth of July.
I want to talk, but simply say “hi.”
I texted her Thanksgiving, once more.
She sends a smiley face I adore.
I sent her a turkey back.
Old texts start to stack.
I decided to delete them right then.
If not now, then when?
I texted her Thanksgiving Day.
There’s not much more to say.
Easter is here
Like raindrops falling from the sky
And all I want to do is fly
Easter is here
Like the shining sun
So lets have some fun
Easter is here
And with a smile on my face
I think of rabbits and chocolate eggs
Easter is finally here
Yipee…Yipee…Yippee! ! !
Easter is here
And I am just feeling happy
To wish you a very Happy Easter
Easter is here
Its rabbit time
And rabbits special holiday
Rabbits they come into our homes
On Easter Day
And leave evidence they were here
In the form of chocolate rabbits and chocolate eggs
Easter is here
Its rabbits time
Its rabbits day
And its rabbits special holiday
So lets all celebrate along with rabbits
And have an enjoyable easter
Happy Easter 2024
Everyone come and celebrate
Arise with this holy day
Sun shining brightly for
The king of Israel
Every head and knee shall bow
Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice!
decorations hung
baskets stuffed with green string grass
eggs decorated
EASTER BUNNIES
Maybe at their Easter celebrations
Monks may wear them, never me
I am not one for a religious habit
Long ears and fluff go down well
Playboys all like them, I can tell
Like a cute and furry little rabbit
But at all times of year, you see
Just walk in without reservations
But without a chocolate egg, no joy
One of the more popular traditions
But Pagan, Oestre’s festival and fair
The Goddess of Spring and fertility
And a rabbit’s reproductive ability
German tales of an egg-laying hare
Leaving gifts as one of its missions
The Easter Bunny, more than a toy
A brown sugar glazed ham every holiday dinner planned
Christmas and Easter and New Year tradition
beside that turkey with Thanksgiving cheers
those holiday feast with family we remember dear
Crowned with pineapple rings attached by cloves
the smell in the oven baking tempts your nose
Display on the dinning table center stage
sweet meat candy the holiday rage
Sliced thin so more to go around
Happiness the taste of the holidays profound
Holiday baked ham and sweet potato pie
french green beans and cornbread muffins stacked high
mashed potatoes with plenty of gravy
mac and cheese and don't say maybe
So many foods and treats but that baked ham we love to eat
With bone or without, spiraled or whole there is no doubt
a favorite for the seasons and your tummy full
when first out of the oven the smell makes you drool.
There once was a girl you may know
They called her the “Holiday Ho”
Yes, she gets around
Though many have frowned
Especially that old, So and So
Old Santa, you know whom I mean
For him, there is no in-between
He shouts Ho-Ho-Ho
And she starts to glow
She’d love to be his Christmas queen
Yet, Santa is married you see
And Mrs, Claus won’t be a three
That “Holiday Ho“
Will just have to go
Perhaps Easter Bunny is free
Past the salad fields of green,
With ciders flowing in between,
An island sits though out a-ways,
Of candy from the holidays.
They’re thrown away and tossed aside,
Without a bite or even tried,
So past the days of fresher primes,
They cry about forgotten times.
The candy corn all in a heap,
Continue on to slowly weep,
Passed over for a candy bar,
To sit untouched inside a jar.
And next to them, the tootsie rolls,
Were pushed aside in candy bowls,
They sob next to the candy canes,
Who watched alone the Christmas trains.
Just look who’s sitting by the docks,
A full but lonely chocolate box,
Who never shared dessert with wine,
Or eaten by a Valentine.
The hollowed bunnies hop around,
The jelly beans upon the ground,
But stuck among a larger mass,
Of artificial Easter grass.
They weep and think about the day,
And time that they were thrown away,
As now it’s here they sadly roam,
Their misfit candy island home.
Ave Maria
I hear the cries, the ties that bind.
I recall it all when Easter comes.
His suffering upon the cross our
Great and humble loss endured for us.
Ave Maria
How she must have suffered too at his feet.
The tears she shed as her son bled.
Then as He dies the darkened skies revealed
Mourning fears mingled with anguished tears.
Ave Maria
Laid to rest beyond the stone mourners moan.
In disbelief instilled with grief as He appears
First before Mary's eyes to see our Lord arise.
Ave Maria
Rejoice this blessed day as we pray...He lives!
As His disciples too bear witness to His wounds.
Jesus died to wipe our sins away. With the
Grace of God he rose from this sod into Heaven..
Ave Maria
Amen!

Parking spots are plentiful
Just like they used to be.
The promenade is empty –
On the benches, only me.
It’s Passover and Easter;
Folks are visiting their friends
Or families to celebrate
Before the daylight ends.
They’re either eating matzoh balls
Or possibly, a ham
With lots of homemade goodies
For desserts for all to cram.
I don’t know what the Easter people
Drink, but in New York,
We Pesach* folk drink Manischewitz,
Wine without a cork.

such brightly colored grasses bring ~
pretty plastic poop beads on a string
Happy Easter to everyone on Poetry Soup
(except those of you not in the 'Christian group')
I hope that you all enjoy the holiday
and that the Easter Bunny comes your kids' way
Of course, there's a lot more to Easter than bunnies and bonnets
but I'll 'Pass Over' that ~ let theologians ruminate on it
~ Happy Easter to One and All! ~
