NATIONAL POETRY MONTH....DAY 19

It’s Good Friday.  I did not really want to put much out in a blog but thought I’d post a piece about Holy Days.  

It’s a solemn day for me.  I’m fasting until after 3:00 pm which I’ve done for years.  Breakfast was coffee and a piece of toast.  As I’ve gotten older I use 3:00 pm as my time to have lunch/supper combined which I’ve called ‘lupper’ or sometimes ‘sunch’ depends on my mood.  Today it’s ‘sunch’.  

Until tomorrow....have a good day.

Solemnly the days before Easter arrive

Holy Thursday..... 

   Good Friday....a day of fasting for many

     Blessings of the basket at church on Holy Saturday 

We all look forward to Easter Sunday

   Our Lenten fast will end

       We will don our finest apparel to head 

           to church services 

     

Children hunt for hidden eggs

   Easter....it’s not the bunny to     

     whom we should await and celebrate 

      Not the basket of chocolate eggs....

         marshmallow peeps and jelly beans

        

Easter Sunday the day to rejoice for the        

          Lord has risen
