HAPPY EASTER!

Let every year's April showers

bring forth colourful May flowers,

let the sun shorten each night

and fill every day with light...

When summer comes in the end,

we'll finally comprehend 

that hope's reborn every spring,

for children and bards to sing.

And, when cold and gloom return,

we won't forget that we learn

to stay hopeful and secure,

for spring will return once more.

Happy Easter

and may every springtime last

more than all the winters past!
