Easter always falls on a Sunday, at some point between March 22nd and April 25th, following the cycle of the moon. Easter is considered the Christian equivalent of the Jewish holiday called Passover, which falls right around the same date. The Last Supper shared by Jesus and his disciples before his crucifixion is generally thought of as a Passover meal.
POEM FOR EASTER... by Rudyard KiplingI wish someone had given Jesus a dog As loyal and loving as mine To sleep by His manger and gaze in His eyes And adore Him for being divine. As our Lord grew to manhood His faithful dog Would have followed Him all through the day While He preached to the crowds and healed the sick And knelt in the garden to pray. How sad to remember that Christ went away to face death alone and apart - No tender dog following close behind To comfort its Master's Heart. And when Jesus rose on that Easter morn How happy He would have been Had His dog kissed His hands and barked its delight For The One who had died for all men. Well, the Lord has a dog now, I just sent Him mine the old pal so dear to me And I smile through my tears on this first day alone Knowing eternity. Day after day, the whole day through Wherever my road inclined Four feet said, "I am coming with you!" And trotted along behind.
