Hi, Trisha;
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful poem about the Lamb. As a child watching King of Kings, I cried when he died on the cross. As an adult, I learned He did it all for us. What did the Easter Bunny ever do for us except add to our waistline?

You are so welcome. Times have swung toward commerce. I have no objection to the celebration with goodies, but only after we show gratitude for His sacrifices, and teach children the significance of it all.
Thank you for your complimentary review.
Hugs, Trisha
Comment from Roxanna Andrews
Very nicely done and said. We have forgotten what Easter is really about. No bunny ever died to save the world. So grateful God is so forgiving and keeps His wrath from us. A reminder of what the Easter season is all about. Roxanna

Comment from friartuck
A wonderful poem about the real and true meaning of Easter and the resurrection, and what it means (and should mean) to and for us!
Just one suggestion - check the meaning of the word "clamber" -- I would venture to guess what you wanted there was "clamor" - copare their meanings and I think you'll see what I mean.
At any rate, I thank you for that!

Many thanks, I corrected my error. I appreciated your helpful review
Comment from Pamusart
Did you mean clamor rather than clamber? It means hoping. I hear your message. I am not religious. But, I do see hypocrisy in going to church only on or around Christmas and Easter. Good luck in the club contest. Thank you for sharing

How often do we forget the real meaning of different special days!! what a beautiful reminder, reminds me of the hymn that goes "His eyes are on the sparrow and I know He watches me"... very lovely indeed.

Comment from Henry King
An excellent poem for a shout-out competition. The author's sentiment could be applied to all religious holidays. The only thing that niggles at me is, Our Lord said, "Forgive them Father, they do not know what they do." I would hesitate, in His Name, to call them murderers.
