Analysis of Easter

Nicolas Simpson 1983 (Illinois)



To proceed on Easter Sunday,
And the bunny is on the way,
Hopping down the bunny trail,
And waiting for people to say,
Happy Easter everyone,
Becoming as one,
Having fun and listening to kids say "I won",
They say as they take the last egg,
Kids wanting more they beg,
They get prizes such as money,
The parent say "Honey, its about Jesus has risen",
Being in like a prison,
Cold and alone,
Scared and brave,
He has risen,
Today its not about candy and prizes,
It's all about how Jesus was locked up,
He was there for three days,
And he went missing on the third day........
