Arise, arise,
And with His burial-linen dry thine eyes.
Christ left His grave-clothes, that we might, when grief
Draws tears or blood, not want a handkerchief.

Isn't it a little funny that the easter post is right above the one that says "Dead is Dead"? Maybe Lost has a little something to learn from the Bible story.

Very beautiful. Easter is my favorite time of year, although the beauty of it is alive every day. I hope you had a blessed day.

Truth indeed. I love that there are humans who fully realize the beauty of the resurrection and are able to wax poetic about it as well.
