Twa D Day Before Easter
T’was d day before Easter
And all through the woods
The bunnies were busy
packing their goods.
The eggs were all colored
so pretty and bright
all things were “GO”
for the big special night
The baskets were waiting all decorated
With care in hopes
That the bunny soon would be there
My little brother theophilus
Was asleep in his bed
While visions of Easter eggs
rolled round his head.
And with my pynjamas and
with the puppy on my lap
I had just settled down
For a quick little nap
When outside the window
I heard a great noise
I sprang from my chair and
Jumped over some toys.
As quick as a flash to the window I flew
I pulled up the shade and
Oh! What a view
The moon on the meadow cast
A great golden glow
And the wind blew the flowers
to and fro.
Then all of a sudden from
Out of no where came
Some lovely bunnies
Hopping here and there
Leading the pack with ears long
And funny was an all plump
White rabbit,
That’s right the EASTER BUNNY.
So up on each doorstep the bunnies did hop
With baskets of eggs lets
Hope they don’t drop just at that moment
from the
Porch down below
Came the stamping of feet
T’was d rabbit I knew
He was surrounded by eggs
Which had been carefully dyed?
Easter eggs galore he soon
Would hide.
He’s eyes were all twinkles
He’s nose so pink
(and I cant be so sure but I think he did wink)
He uttered no sound as he hopped all about
Hiding the eggs and leaving
No doubt that the easter bunny
has come with baskets of
happiness for children so dear.
