The Easter Garden

A poem by Noelle Briggs

Tableau of hope,
the Easter Garden
tells of God’s amazing love,
His awesome power.

Proclaiming Jesus risen,
the empty tomb,
stone rolled aside.

Proclaiming we’re forgiven,
the empty cross,
gateway to peace.

Symbolising life anew
for all who come,
believe, accept,

the bright, enfolded, flowers
above the tomb,
around the cross.

New life which is eternal
but starts while on
this rocky earth.

Tableau of hope,
the Easter Garden
tells of God’s amazing love,
His awesome power.

Easter 3

Risen Christ,
you filled your disciples with boldness and fresh hope:
strengthen us to proclaim your risen life
and fill us with your peace,
to the glory of God the Father.
Amen.
