Several Easter folklores and poems are meant to make the kids understand the
deep sited meaning and spirit of this holy occasion. One such poem is ‘Easter
Comes But Once a Year’ by JS Bach. This poem narrates how a bunch of children
enjoy the festival of Easter. Children make merry filling themselves with
chocolate when their father is away in the pub for a pint of beer. Even the
little ones are not left behind. But amid all the fun, they too realize that
Easter is the occasion to remember the Lord who sacrificed his life for the
mankind. Here are the lyrics of the Easter poem 'Easter Comes But Once a Year.'
Easter Comes But Once a Year
Easter comes but once a year
But when it does, we all know its here
Children filling themselves with chocolate
Dad's down the pub for a pint of beer!
We go to the church for the wine and bread
Dad's half asleep, and jerking his head
Baby sister is here too, munching away
On the free Easter egg that the Priest gave us today
But remember we must, that the Lord died for us
And ascended into heaven to give us fresh lives
For each and every one of us |
