True Easter

By my talented son, Joe Harrison

If people pondered the true meaning
Of their Easter celebration
All the happy smiling faces
Will have vanished from every Nation

Colored eggs and Easter bunnies
And symbolic pagan folklore
Have stolen the hearts of every mom
Making the resurrection all a bore

Jesus died and rose again
After three days in the grave
He was sent from God with a will
As a hope for each soul to save

Each person knows it in their heart
And has a choice to let it surface
Easter bunnies can make hearts blind
But Gods gift you can not miss

I smile more when I have this in mind
Then when dousing eggs in colored dye
And I'm happiest when with family
Not when with some bunny suit wearing guy

The fun of Easter is never withheld
When knowing what parts are true
The Easter should be apart in remembrance of God
And with wonderful parents like you
