Notes About The Poem

 

Confetti filled eggs a traditional  part of Easter 

Easter 2018

An early rise before the sunrise, brief prayer relief to fill a slow cooker with corn beef, carrots, potatoes and cabbage. Proud of myself I didn't damage the homemade yeast rolls. I took one last shameless flirt at the chocolate mousse for dessert. Relieved my grandson and granddaughter right in the middle picked up their grandfather from the hospital. Afterwards, no refrain for a hunt of confetti filled Easter eggs after a fresh rain. No need to explain grandson drove back to college to glean more knowledge. 4/9/2018
An Easter tradition filling dyed egg shells with confetti, candy and money..

You had a lovely Easter it would seem. How did you empty the egg shells? Lovely poem. Joyce

Hello Joyce, happy belated birthday :) The eggs are taped out from the top with a butter knife about the size of a Quarter, empty the egg , then wash and let dry... when all are saved you color them or paint ( I love to paint all sorts of images on them ) then fill with confetti and or money.... It entices all to hunt and break the egg shells on each other’s head.. Hugs Eve
