Lily of Easter

WriteBeLight

Lily-white flower,

Symbol of the Day.

What Jesus endured,

Before arising again.

 

Stands for such purity,

New beginning and hope,

Innocence and peace,

For us all will envelop.

 

Standing tall in the wind,

Against difficulty, defiance,

To comfort us all,

On this, we’re reliant.

 

So, take care for this flower,

Linked with the Resurrection.

Appreciate its importance,

Always show affection.

      I grow them in pots and was staking against the wind only yesterday - looking forward to their flowering in about three months time. A great reflective piece of writing.

        Appreciate that Michael! They are beautiful, as I am sure your flowers will be.

                Lilies are such beautiful flowers, and on this weekend so significant. Reflecting on their place as a symbol, on the purity of the Easter Lily, and their connection to the resurrection, filled me with hope on an otherwise depressing weekend of International threats. God bless us all. Thanks WBL - Phil A.

                • WriteBeLight

                  I am glad you felt comfort. I agree Phil. It is a tough time and hard to forget when we are trying to respect the Season. I appreciate your comment and hope you have a wonderful weekend and Easter!
