We celebrate together in a charm
A love in wonder spoken free
With added tease in morning alarm
The children horde their candy
~
Such little cause to worry of their greed
Youthful ambition, the search
The plastic spheres is only their need
While the world arrives in church.
~
Inside the facade of precious childhood
We do protect, we wish only love
A world around crumbles a neighborhood
In the cooing mist of lovely dove.
~
A pain exists that frightens innocence
On Easter day we pray that life has chance
