In Your Easter Bonnet

She, in her Easter bonnet
Standing beneath the shade,
Alongside gentlemen in top hats
To view an Easter parade

Church bells ring distantly
Showy, white lilies sway,
Waving to sweet daffodils 
On this springtime holiday 

Baskets with chocolate rabbits 
Jelly beans and colored eggs,
Are carried by happy children 
Running by on pudgy legs

A whirl of pastel colors
Meant to delight the eye,
Like the first time seeing
A robin or a butterfly 

Joyous music fills the air and
Easter dinner is on the way,
Ham and pineapple wait at home
To round out this special day!

One I can be sure I'd love to read. You toped my Easter with this. It's nice when something touches your imagination.
