Pixies riding butterflies
corral a bunny rabbit.
And over the centuries,
they have gotten good at it.
Fairies weave a straw basket
that they fill with colored eggs.
Yet, they can't get the bunny
to stand on its two hind legs.
That will require the finesse
of a young elvish Queen's touch.
For, after sprouting her wings,
her powers increase that much.
She grinds some unicorn horn
with the nectar of flowers.
And gives the Easter Bunny
special magical powers.
And with a kiss of her lips,
Mister Cottontail's transformed.
And stands on two legs as soon
as the ritual's performed.
Each Easter, colored eggs are
deliberately hidden.
And reality's paused; then
discreetly overridden.
