in a park
at the end of the block
an easter egg hunt
is being put on
by slavic immigrants

their children
as chickens never born
run around from bush to tree

everyone is bound
to have a basket full
though that might involve
a certain miracle that fathers know

so boys and girls too young to read
are initiated into mysteries
like faith and hope
and quiet love

like faith and hope
and quiet love

I find that one needs that even as we grow older...and so the search is always on

I like the miracle that fathers create and the way of teaching of faith, love  and tradition.

a good commitee can decimate communication.
