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!
