IT’S EASTER TIME
Its Easter time the
breath of spring
The woodsy tang, new life is everywhere,
The sleeping seeds are awaking Their heads peep from earthly tombs
Sing you buds everywhere
It’s Easter time.
Its Easter time.
Crocuses are signs that gladness comes, Kind
regards come from the yellow daffodils The roses sing I love all of you,
Then chime all the flowers
It’s Easter time.
Meadow larks and
robins Fly into to town In joyful play
They
swing on boughs
Trill in ecstasy to show their joy
Sing all birds 'ore the land
It’s Easter time.
Run little brooks run
to the sea Your cold water leaps giving an echo
That rings out where your waterfall
shines From rocks to ponds we hear
The meadow sounds the hymn of the pines
It’s Easter time.
With magic touch o'er
glen and mountain side Run
little brook, carry the perfume from the Lily that awoke, one gray morning
Run to the twisting moonbeam adrift on the
bay,
Carry the city, the mountain bird’s
glee,
Carry the joy of the spring wanders to the sea.
I’ll wear a dress the
color of marmalade
With
a border embroidered in blue
The color of the edge of a meadow
When spring showers fall.
A matching hat round as a top that spins
An elastic band to hold it under my chin.
Brand –new shoes whiter
than cream With heart-shaped golden buckles that
gleam
A purse of butterfly blue, with a penny for
you
A penny for me, to buy a glass of
lemonade
We’ll
skip hand in hand when we go to church On
Easter Day.
I met the Easter Bunny on Easter morn before
the cocks were crowing,
I asked where you
are going. “Tis in the house and out of the
The house-a-tipsy, tipsy- toeing, Tis round
the house
And
‘bout the house a-lightly going ”
What is that of every hue you carry in your
basked?
“Tis eggs of gold and eggs of blue, I wonder
that you ask it.
“Tis chocolate eggs and
venom eggs and eggs of red and blue
For every child in every house on bonny Easter
day.”
He raise his ears and winked his eye and
twitched his little nose, He shook his tail and stood up on his
toes,
“I must be gone before the sun comes up
The east is glowing.
Tis almost time for
bells to chime He
said as he hippety -hopped away
All within is love
Joy forever more.
Consecrate
your life a new,
On
Easter day.
May God give you all
the faith it takes To make your dreams come true.
May his love and wisdom always help?
To guide you on your way.
May his light shine down upon you On
your Easter Day.
Easter is the gift of
HOPE
Easter is the gift of PEACE
Easter
is the gift of LOVE
Let, us rejoice in Him,
Who gives all. At
Easter time
