Dust bunny Easter

The Bunnies all gathered happily around my feet
Last night too exited to hardly even sleep
Yet when the dawn came I heard them all say
"Wake up Wake up, Because it is Easter Day."

As I roused myself amongst the dust bunny cheers
I helped them to wash their faces and ears
I then set them down in furry little rows
and dressed them all up in their Easter clothes

All pretty and clean we left with a lurch
all in the car to go to a small church
There sitting on old hymnals so they could see
there they all learned how Easter came to be

They listened in silence as the old preacher spoke
of the three days in a tomb until the Savior woke
It was the first time I've seen them still for such a while
but when they all left each wore a small smile

But when we came home it was so much fun
when they saw a colored basket for everyone
With shrieks of delight they hurried around
looking to see what wonders that could be found

Peeking in drawers and under chair legs
dancing and laughing when they found chocolate eggs
All went in a pile in the middle of the floor
where they emptied their baskets to look for some more

Looking under the couch and in the bookcase
finding them all, no egg was safe
After the hunt they had chocolate eggs and treats
and curled up on the sofa and softly fell asleep

I sat and watched them, asleep in a pile
and noticed that even sleeping, they softly smile
I wonder at times on what's in their soft dreams
But they still show me each day what Easter means

I know that I usually keep the dust bunny poems in the humor section but they told me that it fit in here better :)
