Bill Simmons Poet Rhyme

Once Upon An Easter

The Easter Bunny as he hopped along
He carefully placed each egg in it's new hiding place
When he was through he looked back to view
But astonishment fell upon his face

For a snake he had come along
And he had eaten every last one
The Bunny he seen and said, 'Oh my, dear me! '
'Oh no, look what you've done! '

The snake he said, 'But I was so hungry'
'And they were such wonderful morsels of treat'
The Bunny he said, 'But they were all mine! '
'They were for the children on Easter to seek! '

The snake said, ' I'm sorry, I did not know'
'But they are all gone now no doubt'
The Bunny said, 'I know what I'll do! '
''They are in you, I will get them out! '

A worried look came upon the snakes face
As the Bunny he grabbed the snakes tail
Then he shook that snake with every inch of his life
But the eggs were quite stuck and stuck well

The snake now gasping said, 'You cannot do this! '
'This just wont ever do! '
But the Bunny he said, 'What goes in must come out! '
'And that includes the inside of you! '

The snake got away and climbed a tree way up high
But the branch broke and he fell to the ground
And when he did, out popped those eggs
They were scattered and all over around

The snake now leaving, he turned and said, 'Phew! '
'I think I should hibernate through this Easter thing too! '
