What is writing really like?
A mixture of colours,
With plenty of glow.
Winter is passing,
But still there’s no snow.
With later sunsets
That gently progress.
I’d hoped for a blanket
Of snowy whiteness.
As temperatures blossom
Much warmer than the norm.
I handle the weather
But long for a snow storm.
Just a sprinkling of snow
For a short day or two.
And then I’ll be happy
And let Spring shine through.
Easter weekend,
Finally here,
Warmer weather,
Full of cheer.
Get together,
Have some fun,
Eat some chocolate,
Everyone.
Chocolate eggs
And Easter rabbits
Hot cross buns
And Easter magic.
When I was young,
I liked Easter best.
Put my chocolate eating
To the test.
Munch through Creme eggs,
Mini eggs too.
Fill my belly,
Till I’m through.
Then wallow in
My chocolate high.
Wave my family
A fond goodbye.
Spend a week
Still feeding on choc.
Waiting for next Easter
Watching the clock.
I wrote this fun poem in response to a friend asking me how I felt about Easter. My gut instinct was that I much prefer it to Christmas. Maybe this stems from the fact that I absolutely love chocolate.
I am not fond of all of the hype that goes with Christmas but Easter is very self-contained. It comes and goes quickly and is full of chocolate. What’s not to like?
Thank you for taking the time to read my silly Easter Feeing poem. I hope that you eat lots of chocolate (possible dairy free) this weekend and for the following days. Easter is a great excuse to abandon healthy diets for a few days and treat ourselves.
