The hug from daughter <br />Unbidden, unceremonial, undemanded, unexpected <br />A small thing in her universe <br />An act of grace received in mine <br />A gift befitting His highest Holy Day <br />The manifestation through an Easter evening hug <br />Of a far more sacrifical and compounding love <br />That leaves the Easter bunny's eggs in dust.<br /><br />Bill Grace<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-easter-evening-hug/
