An Easter Poem

Meanings are often lost
through all the money spending
the real meaning for Easter
is not just a spending money season.
The new suits and dresses;
the Easter egg baskets.
Coloring eggs to find
You know that’s not it.
You can’t forget the Easter bunny.
He has become a popular figure.
Whether it’s chocolate or fruity.
Minds are still at a blur.
Yes April is poetry month
something else to add to the list.
This is not the real meaning
for a poem like this.
Today is the day.
The resurrection of Jesus Christ.
he died for all our sins
We should be celebrating this.
Not new clothes
and the sells at the stores
They might be a little tempting,
but Jesus opened all those doors.
He died for us
so that we may live.
Look at all around you.
in us he believe.
Oh, what a good friend 
we have in Jesus.
Our souls he has saved
So we need to think more then just us.
So this day, to me
means more then what money can buy
Just to know that Jesus rose
brings tears to my eyes.
Jesus rose from the dead
This is the true meaning of this day.
The man that died for all our sins.
So I say “Thank you”, for blessing me with another day.
