Easter Lilies

It’s Easter and
the lilies are in bloom.
The trumpet blossoms
herald springtime
and the celebration
of the resurrection.
The purity of blossoms
mirror the virtue
of the Christ who
came to sacrifice himself
to absolve us
from our sins.

Paula Frew
Transplanted from Ohio to Kentucky to be near her only daughter and three young grandsons, the author wrote her first poem in the fourth grade. She fell in love with the form and was first published in an anthology at fourteen. A battle with multiple sclerosis has caused her to find her home in a nursing home, where she has found time to craft her poetry as well as time to teach writing to other residents. She has been published in several literary magazines and anthologies, including Ohio Bards and The Walt Whitman Anthology.
