Note: During this time of lockdown, our 12-year-old daughter Isabella has had the inspiration to write two lovely poems, inspired by the joy of Easter and of Spring. We thought they might delight the hearts of our readers and inspire them with the love of Christ and of God’s Creation. Still in this Easter Season, we hope you enjoy them.
Easter
Easter is a joy-full tide
When Christ Himself to Heaven He rides
On that happy morn
Our Lord was not born
But rose from the dead
To give us His Eternal Bread
With His Death He opened the Gates of Heaven
So that we also may reach Heaven
And drink Eternal Life
So we may no longer have strife
And our souls not to soil
Also no longer to toil
So on this happy morn
All our sorrow is gone
Let us be joyful
And make us for Him delightful
Also to Him our love to bring
And His glory to sing
Spring
The mild spring, the season most beautiful
Is a season who feels dutiful
To come every year
Or the world could not bear
Not to witness that season
For so many a reason
The mild weather
With the animals eating grass from their tether
The fresh blossoming trees
And the busy bees
The fresh young grass
That let the animals pass
I love the spring
And all the joys it brings
This is my favorite season
For many a reason
