Poems Based on Lectionary Gospels
When I was young, they told me
That around this time of year,
Some rabbits lay bright-colored eggs.
Now that, to me, is queer,
For other times they never
Even lay an egg that's white.
So it must be a miracle
That moves them overnight.
And yet, it seems that miracles
Are special acts of God.
And wasting them on trivia
Like that seems rather odd.
For surely God has more important
Things to fill his days.
And making hares lay colored eggs
Is quite unlike his ways.
There is an Easter miracle
That around this time of year,
Some rabbits lay bright-colored eggs.
Now that, to me, is queer,
For other times they never
Even lay an egg that's white.
So it must be a miracle
That moves them overnight.
And yet, it seems that miracles
Are special acts of God.
And wasting them on trivia
Like that seems rather odd.
For surely God has more important
Things to fill his days.
And making hares lay colored eggs
Is quite unlike his ways.
There is an Easter miracle
