EASTER RABBIT

Hippety-hopping,
nearly stopping traffic as he passes,
Two long ears are bouncing, bopping,
popping through the grasses.
Balancing his basket as he’s jumping through the air,
Such a grand, important, extraordinary hare!
Making children happy is the way he got his fame.
Now, kids across the land can shout:
The Easter bunny came!

A BASKETFUL OF EGGS

by Eileen Spinelli

We dyed our eggs – green and blue,

sunny yellow, purple too.

And then we brought them one by one

to neighbors. It was so much fun

to see the sparkle in the their eyes

because of such a small surprise.

We learned that day, in early spring,

that kindness is a simple thing –

that smiles and eggs can

make hearts sing.

BOOKWORM SPRING

It’s spring and I walk past the broom

instead of sweeping every room.

A toppled shutter needs repair.

A wintry quilt needs April air.

It’s time to scrub and dust and weed.

But all I want to do is

read!
