I woke up before Easter Sunrise
A smile in my belly
Searching for celebration through the world’s eyes
I found tragedy and hate on social media and the telly

What’s tragic is the world has missed the point
It denies God and, therefore, love
It lives in a Friday night beer joint
Instead of he Resurrection above

Fair warning my good friend, if I may
When you search for “Easter” on the internet
Don’t fall for the suggested hashtag of “EasterSunday”
When “HappyEaster” is what you really meant
