B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for April 04, 2010

It’s been a while. Good to see a Wiley poem again.

Good Morning, Lonewolf, LuvH8 & Dogsniff.

Nice poem!

A blessed Easter to you all. He is risen.

The poem is like ray of sunshine through the dark grey clouds.

Happy Holiday Everyone!

Happy Easter Day! Don’t eat the boiled eggs and the candies too much.

Bless the Lord for Jesus Christ who died on the cross and He was risen.

Fantastic!

Good Morning & Happy Easter LuvH8, Grog, Dogsniff and everyone!

And Bless You, Wildmustang1262!

A Blessed and Happy Easter to All! (if you celebrate the resurrection - otherwise, a Happy Day to you!)

The poem is nice…but…I think Johnny Hart would be disappointed. Easter about more than just grass breaking through in spring.

And a Happy Easter to all of you as well!

The message is in there.

I really enjoyed that one. Thanks!

Happy Easter everyone!

Happy Resurrection Day, Mr. Hart….wherever you are

Yes stuperfan, I, too, miss Johnny. Yes, Richard, the message is in there, but so well hidden that it will get missed, or misinterpreted as another springtime paean I liked that Johnny had the courage of his convictions, and was willing to stand for them in a world that doesn’t stand for much.

A Blessed and Happy Easter to All!

Very subtle too be sure Giving time for pause and thought is a good thing

Happy Eoster, to one and all! Enjoy the Rites of Spring, and the the Fertility Festival! (This is not intended as a swipe at my Christian friends. As what is currently known as Easter is an extension of an ancient pagan ritual, my pagan friends deserve to be acknowledged as well.)

Almost made it to noon EST until the pagan word was used I don’t know why I thought/hoped it wouldn’t be

Very Nice!

Happy Eoster makes more sense with all those decorated Eggs hidden about. Reminds me of when I was a kid & my parents decided to hide them outdoors. Before we could “Hunt” them, a big Nor’ Easter came along & buried them under a foot of snow☃

I refuse to call it Easter. I had never thought of calling it Resurrection Day,. I kind of like that.

I found this very interesting:

To paraphrase Jeff Bridges (as Flynn in TRON [1981]): They didn’t even change the name, man!”

Vigilante de noche is upset that it’s a stolen holy day and wants to ignore it.

Just as I ignore Jesus at Christmas, I ignore him again on Easter. Bunnies, flowers, and eggs; could the fertility symbolism be more obvious? Spring is definitely worth celebrating, regardless of the baggage heaped on.

That was good

what a beautiful poem

Sunrise service. Wiley edition.

NICE POEM! Very fitting.

Happy Hilaria or the Day of Joy, a time of feasting and merriment.” Easter is the Christian version of this. Another good reason to eat chocolate! ♥

The Pagans at this time of year for many years before the Christians, celebrated the Goddess Eoster. She appeared at the Vernal Equinox carrying a basket of eggs, and accompanied by 2 baby rabbits. Another celebration used by the Christians.

NICE POEM! Very fitting.
