Unfortunately, this moon will not be pink in appearance.

the first full Moon that occurs on or after the Spring equinox,
and the first Full Moon before Easter.

The Paschal Moon is ripe to-night
On fair Manhada's Bay
And soft it falls on Hoboken
As where the Saviour lay
And beams, beneath whose paly shine
Nile's troubling angel flew
Show many a blood besprinkled door
Of our Passover too.
