Colors in the Sand
Red
eggs, blue eggs,
Even
strange hue eggs.
Eggs
with squiggly lines and spots,
Bright
flowers and polka dots.
Strewn
along the shore,
Each
egg leading to more.
All
nestled in the sand,
Left
by an unknown hand.
Did
they come from a colorful bird?
No,
it’s Easter, haven’t you heard?
So,
c’mon, let’s get going!
Fill
your basket to overflowing.
Poem by SurfWriter Girls Sunny Magdaug

In addition to delivering Easter eggs, rabbits have held
prominent roles in fiction from the White Rabbit in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland to that “wascally wabbit” Bugs
Bunny of Looney Tunes fame. Sometimes naughty, sometimes nice, these memorable
rabbits have left their paw prints on our lives.
“Peter, who was very naughty, ran straight away to Mr.
McGregor’s garden, and squeezed under the gate.”
Beatrix Potter – The
Tale of Peter Rabbit
“Weeks passed, and the little rabbit grew very old and
shabby, but the Boy loved him just as much. He loved him so hard that he loved
all the whiskers off, and the pink lining to his ears turned grey, and his
brown spots faded. He even began to lose his shape, and he scarcely looked like
a rabbit any more, except to the Boy. To him he was always beautiful, and that
was all that the little Rabbit cared about.”
Margery Williams – The
Velveteen Rabbit
Wishing You a Happy Spring!
May you have Peter Rabbit’s sense of adventure and
the
Velveteen Rabbit’s kind heart and giving nature.
Patti, Peter & Sunny
