Mr. Bunny hops, here and there

Hurry scurry, with nary a care

He has to gather colored eggs

For little Johnny, Mike and Peg

Baskets filled with grasses, green

And every color in between

Chocolates that seem never melt

Marshmallow peeps, expand your belt

Jelly beans, to send the sugar rush higher

He’s racing around, to fill your desires

When everything’s ready, he’ll be headed your way

Please leave a carrot for him, this Easter Sunday

They must have sneaked up on me

When I wasn’t paying attention

And now I’m wearing this silly dress

You can understand my apprehension

I know that Easter’s coming soon

But I still feel rather funny

You see, it doesn’t make much sense

To dress a dragon as a bunny!

Someone please explain to me
About the Easter Bunny
I’ve never seen a rabbit lay eggs
I find that rather funny

Yet every year it happens
They’re colorful and bright
A basket full of Easter eggs
That used to be just white

I tried myself to make the eggs
As pretty as can be
But somehow all the colors
Wound up all over me!

So, I’ll leave it to the bunny
As he goes his merry way
And hope he stops at your front door
This blessed Easter day.

Removed from the cross
Wrapped in a shroud
They took him away
From the lingering crowd
While a mother wept
For the loss of her son

“It is finished, it is done”

They laid him to rest
In a tomb made of stone
Guarded by sentries
He was never alone
Mary Magdalen kept vigil
Those close heard her pray
For her savior’s return
On this Holy Saturday
