Easter Poem

Easter

Easter time is full of joy
It’s fun for every girl and boy,

With Easter eggs
and treasure hunts
and finding eggs within sugar lumps,

While bunnies hop and children sleep
Along comes Easter bunny without making a peep,

He will leave small gifts
and hide some eggs,
Children rise and stretch their legs.

Easter fun lasts for a day
So eat your eggs and shout hooray!
