The Morning After ~~~ Sunlight softlyflowing into a woodland dawn Where honeysuckles lift their heads from a sleepy morning fawn Though all of nature seems at rest 'neath the fragrance of a flower A distant cadence breaks the still beneath this rustic bower ~ A gentle thump and then another A shimmer parts the years Into the glade a silhouette with long thin drooping ears The whiskers graced upon his face show an ancient shade of grey A basket tucked beneath his arm as he stops to bless the day Then with a yawn he disappears amid a dazzling sight A multi colored kaleidoscope that fades 'neath Easter's light ~~~ |

Rex! What a delightful read....I remember as a child [a very little one...no, tinier than that...] wondering if our Easter bunny would come back for whatever colorful eggs we might miss...I remember when my children were collecting them, and my mental count of all the little gems they brought back, one, two, three...and on and on until I knew there would be no sulphuric smelling explosions a week or two later... Thank you for this wonderful smile! |

  (smiles) BRAVO!!! Oh my gosh, this is sooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, I too always feel that Easter is not only the day where we celebrate His resureection and His promise of everlasting love but the rebirth of so many other beautiful things spring offers us, such as the laughter among innocent children and the flowers that bloom! (big hugggssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, you always amaze me with your refreshing words, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Rex, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
