EASTER CHEER
BY FIONA CUMMINGS
The Easter bunny is working hard
Sticking on beads on a greetings card
Making chocolate eggs
And chicks with two little legs
Easter cakes
With nests from flakes
Colourful shell like eggs
And Easter baskets
Full of joy
For every happy girl and boy
We have painted boiled eggs to hide
Around the house and outside
The smell of chocolate is in the air
Time to share
Shiny paper around the mould
Blues reds and gold
Yellow carpets of daffodils
Climb up the green hills
The sun kisses the new blooms
It’s a wonderful time of the year
And folk gather from far and near
Church bells ring
Smells and sounds of spring
April rain
Silver droplets
They do pitter
Warmer days though it’s Easter
Everything chocolate
From dusk to dawn
On our ponds the frog spawn
Shows a new start
A chocolate melting heart
Baby birds
Lambs with their herds
Bounce in our fields
Bonnets are being, created
Little voices are, elated
A new start for the year
Filled with Easter promise and cheer
