Hope and Resurrection at Christmas

Purple and yellow blooms
appear amidst silver glitter sunshine.
Brightening the gloom with delicate accents
being so out of season;

Purple and yellow the colors of Easter
appearing amidst the colors of Christmas.
Red and green should be the theme
instead of the purple and yellow of Easter.

But ~ Easter is a time of hope and resurrection.
The dead return to the living.
So too does hope of peace and harmony
appear at Christmas time.

Delicate though the colors may be
they bring a diffident sense of hope and peace.
A tentative emotion of what is to come
like a breath of fresh air in the silvery light.

Silver light glittering so effervescently
winds of disparity are in the air
bringing a breath of change upon the land.

The resurrection of:
justice ~ to bring right
to that which was wrong;
hope ~ reform will put aside
those that abuse the rights of men.
Enjoined by hypocrisy to give
the lie a righteous name.
