“Chocolate Eggs and Jesus Risen”
“I have been told of a very small boy who was heard murmuring to himself on Easter morning…
'Chocolate eggs and Jesus risen.’”
-C. S. Lewis, Reflections on the Psalms
This evening is not Ordinary Time
Not even close, with Eastertide just begun
But put we now our mourning clothes away
And with them too our Easter morning best
And dress again in ordinary life
The relatives have finally gone away
The house is quiet, the dishes are washed -
That chocolate bunny is an object of desire
Almost of pagan worship (by God’s grace)
This evening - it is ordinary enough!
