Beautiful Easter Poems
by Helen Steiner Rice



The Miracles of Easter

The sleeping earth awakens,
The robins start to sing,
The flowers open wide their eyes
To tell us it is spring.
The bleakness of the winter
Is melted by the sun,
The tree that looked so stark and dead
Becomes a living one...
These MIRACLES of EASTER,
Wrought with divne perfection,
Are the blessed reassurance
Of our Saviour's Resurrection.

An Easter Promise

If we but had the eyes to see
God's face in every cloud,
If we but had the ears to hear
His voice above the crowd,
If we could feel His gentle touch
In ever Springtime breeze
And find a haven in His arms
'Neath sheltering, leafy trees...
If we could just lift up our hearts
Like flowers to the sun
And trust His Easter Promise
And pray, "thy will be done",
We;d find the peace we're seeking,
The kind no man can give,
The peace that comes from knowing
He Died So We Might Live!

Easter Thoughts for These Troubled Times

As the Easter Seson
dawns once again,
We look on a world of restless men
Men who are 'driven'
by fear and greed
And caught in a web
of tension and speed,
Driving themselves
and the world, as well,
Into a future
no one can fortell
Oh, God, instead
of vain 'driven men',
Fill man's heart
with true 'DRIVE' again,
Spurred on by FAITH
in GOD ABOVE
To build a new world
of 'BROTHERLY LOVE'.
