Darkness in Sunlight




Darkness in Sunlight

Easter Saturday, and the sun shines
Beaches full, happy children play
Spring has come: these are signs
As the tide washes across the bay

Strawberry ice cream in sunlight
A traditional one, in a wafer cone
So far away from war and blight
Rockets, and the people alone

Easter Saturday: Christ in a tomb
Bombed cities, and buried deep
A people fearful of their doom
Sunshine joy, find time to weep

Easter eggs, we crack shells apart
But remember caring, beating heart
