(Just a cute poem that came from my head just now! I remember when I was a little boy and one Easter I got those cute little peeps and they looked so cute and adorable I couldn't bear to eat one of them, so I kept them in my room for over half-a-year until they got so stale my mom made me throw them out! LOL! I can't help it, those Peeps are too cute to eat! (giggles)   )

Marshmallow Peeps
By: Noah Eaton
3/31/02

Marshmallow peeps
In their iridescent hues
They look so sweet
Little fledglings in bloom

Chocolate bunny kisses
From a child to a mother's cheek
Cotton-ears reflecting light of Jesus
Spreading innocence and growth of spring

Robins eggs
Speckled in mother-of-pearl sunlight
Hatching happily after a long winters rest
Little sparrows playing duck, duck, goose until dawns light

Happy lovers
Holding hands in the park
A spring from one heart offered to another
Highlights of the day recited by meadowlarks

A new day has begun
Hydrangea and heather fills the air
Jesus has come
To offer us the strange fire of spring with loving care

Marshmallow peeps
Look as lovely as can be
Making me feel so happy
Feeling the heart of spring so lovingly

Noah~ This was so sweet in more ways than one.  I still wonder why candy is such a big part of the holidays.  When you think about it, there is Valentines, and heart shaped boxes full of chocolate, there is Easter, and peeps, there is Mother's day, give me more , there is holloween, need I go on, there is Christmas and divinity, and homemade chocolate fudge....
Makes me wish I had become a dentist.  
Happy Easter Noah~  Uummmm could you pass me the candy...please?

This is so cute, Noah...I can just picture you as a sensitive little boy who is afraid of hurting those dear little peeps by biting into them.
Although I am Jewish and don't celebrate Easter...I used to have the little peeps at my birthday parties each year when I was a kid.
