Pasqua<\/span><\/h1>\n

Suonano le campane a festa…
Din don, din don!<\/em>
\u00c8 una domenica di primavera:
la natura si risveglia,
i prati sono in fiore.<\/p>\n

\u00c8 il giorno che annuncia l\u2019amore,
la speranza,
l\u2019amicizia in ogni cuore.<\/p>\n

Abbracciamoci, fratelli,
sorridiamo agli alberi,
ai prati,
al sole.<\/p>\n

Dio ci protegge da lass\u00f9:
\u00e8 il giorno in cui risorge Ges\u00f9.<\/p>\n

Easter<\/span><\/h1>\n

The bells are ringing…
\nDing dong, ding dong!<\/em>
\nIt’s a spring Sunday:
\nnature awakens,
\nthe meadows are in bloom.<\/p>\n

It is the day that announces love,
\nhope,
\nfriendship in every heart.<\/p>\n

Let us embrace, brothers,
\nsmile at the trees,
\nat the meadows,
\nat the sun.<\/p>\n

God protects us from up there:
\nis the day when Jesus rises again.<\/p>\n

Review<\/span><\/h2>\n

The poem “Easter<\/em>” by Zaira Sellerio is a delicate hymn to rebirth, fraternity and the light of faith. In a few verses, the author manages to capture the spiritual and natural essence of this feast: the arrival of spring, the awakening of nature, and the profound meaning of Jesus’ resurrection.<\/span><\/p>\n

The rhythm, marked by the sound of bells – \u2018Ding dong, ding dong<\/em>!\u2019 – creates a joyful and welcoming atmosphere, introducing with simplicity and purity the central theme: Easter as a time of hope, love and sharing.<\/span><\/p>\n

The poem is distinguished by its genuine tone, almost childlike in the wonder it expresses, but profound in its spirituality. The lines \u2018let us embrace, brothers, \/ smile at the trees, \/ at the meadows, \/ at the sun<\/em>\u2019 are an invitation to communion with creation and with others, in a universal embrace that transcends the simple gesture.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, the last verse, \u201cit is the day when Jesus rises again<\/em>\u201d, seals the poem with the solemnity of the Easter mystery, bringing the reader back to the heart of the Christian message.<\/span><\/p>\n

A simple but intense poem, capable of speaking to the hearts of young and old alike, with the sweetness of a prayer and the freshness of a spring day.<\/span><\/p>\n
