Red is
for the blood He gave,
Green is for the grass He made,
Yellow is for the sun so bright,
Orange is for the edge of night.
Black is for the sins that were made,
White is for the grace He gave,
Purple is for the hour of sorrow,
Pink is for the new tomorrow.
A bag
full of Jelly beans,
Colorful and sweet,
Is a Prayer...is a promise...
Is an Easter treat!

What
shall I wear for the Easter Parade?
A dress that’s the color of marmalade
With a border embroidered in light blue cornflowers
Like the edge of a meadow after spring showers
And a matching hat round as a top you can spin
And elastic to hold it on under my chin
And brand-new shoes whiter than newly-poured cream
With heart-shaped, golden buckles that gleam;
And I’ll carry a small purse of butterfly blue
With a penny for me and a penny for you
To buy us both glasses of cold lemonade
When we walk, hand in hand, in the Easter Parade.
-William Jay S
Easter
duck and Easter chick,
Easter eggs with chocolate thick.
Easter
hats for one and all,
Easter bunny makes a call!
Happy
Easter always brings
Such a lot of pleasant things,
- Elsie Parrish
