Not planning a meal,
On this Easter Day.
Not out with the kids,
Hunting eggs, at play.
No marshmallow Peeps,
Chocolate bunny, hollow,
Wake up with a toothache,
All day, tomorrow.
Instead appreciate,
All the Easters past.
The years flew by,
In an instant, so fast.
With Church and dinner,
Those Hollywood films.
So dramatic and long,
Sometimes overwhelmed.
Give thanks I can,
Walk outside.
Breath in the fresh air,
Fill my lungs with inside.
And, say a prayer,
Peace will conquer all,
Bring love and sustenance,
And, comfort for all.

Well its my birthday and we've had a houseful including 5 kids since yesterday - supposed to be my day and my wife and I have not stopped - house now straight beds stripped - dishwasher emptied for the third time - both knackered - and both ready for bed and its a great poem by the way.
Thanks Michael and a very Happy Birthday!!! Hope you can celebrate today instead. Weather here is great. Do something for yourself and enjoy! I have had Holidays like that and I agree... a lot of hard work!
Superb WBL
Love it.....
Was at my daughters
Earlier, my two grandkids
Had a egg find... absolutely
Hilarious... they've each
Got a large basket full
And we're fighting over
The last one... honestly
My sides were splitting
She might be only 2
But my lord she can
Fight.... just a wonderful
Day.....
Sounds great P.H. The kids are very competitive when it comes to things like an egg hunt. Parents can be as well... 🙂 Glad you had a great time!
I can relate to celebrating this Easter thru memories of the ones gone by...and for me...it's a lovely way to do it. Loved the read here. Smooth transition from verse to verse! I think your ending is very well put! Happy Easter!
