Easter's coming! Dogwoods abound.
No lovelier tree could e'er be found.
I hold in my hand its pink flow'r,
Illustration of Your Love's pow'r:
In its center ~ Your thorny crown,
Flowing out, Your Love's blood all roun' ~
At each petal's tip lies Death's thorn,
Encircled by Life's halo borne.
The halo formed beyond blood's veins:
Your blood required to end Death's reign.
In its shape, Your torturous cross,
Symbol of God's Ultimate loss.
The dogwood tree, a lovely sign,
In its beauty, God's Love defines:
Love's greatest sacrifice renowned ~
That dreadful day on Calv'ry's mound,
God gave His Son...that we'd be found:
His Loss, our gain ~ Love's sweetest sound.
Easter's coming! Dogwoods abound.
Yes ~ No lovelier tree could e'er be found.
Its pink flower shouts out Love's sound:
God lost His Child, that mine be found...
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
~John 3:16
