Green Grass

Hard boiled egg shell dyed Decorated with pastells and crayons double dip for a richer color Festive Little feet running and searching Baskets overloaded Depositing candy along the way Bunny hopscotch, ring toss Bendy bunny, bunny ink pens Carrot pick up sticks Egg shaped chocolates Remember the everlasting life Remember the blood and Remission of sins Remember you must be born again.

This is a great write because Easter means so much to all of us......For the grandchildren, with the Easter baskets and egg coloring.......and to all of the rest of us, to know that we serve a Risen Savior because the tomb is empty.....It's kinda worrisome to make sure we emphasize the Truth to our children and not just the candy and egg hunts......Larry

Jumping jackrabbits! What a delightful Easter poem, Doris. The store shelves are already filled with Easter candy and I love chocolate whether it's shaped like an egg or a bunny. But you bring us back to the true meaning of the holiday in your last verse so nicely. Great work! Love, Carolyn
