Easter Sunday Poem by Gunadevi Rajaratnam
Easter Sunday
Easter Sunday
(In memory of all the victims of the
bomb-blast in Sri Lanka)
Everlasting memory on resurrection day,
April twenty first will be a red letter day,
So great is the grief and damage,
Tears welled up, happiness faded away,
Entire world was shaken up with agony,
Risen Christ, watched everything.
Saviour's Blessings will be with every soul,
Upon every tortured and tormented,
Never feel, God has turned his Face against you,
Days belong to him, he knows the right day to repay,
And therefore, await his final judgement,
Your sorrows will be rectified.
If I had gone I also would have been a victim - a week after the incident I wrote this poem.
" Never feel, God has turned his Face against you, Your sorrows will be rectified." Extremely poignant yet the poem ends on an optimistic note. Let's hope that all acts of terrorism end once and for all and the language of love prevails everywhere. Amen! We all can relate this tragedy as well as your personal loss in life. Thanks, Dear Ma'am.
Well articulated and nicely brought forth with spiritual insight. May their souls rest in peace in Jesus name, Amen. Thanks for sharing, Gunadevi.

Wow! What a narrow escape. It looks that your faith guards you taking you to the correct place at the correct time. Very sensational. Please read my poem number 100 " Devil's day doom" too in PH on the same incident. Thanks for sharing.
