Vineyard Verses : To the Easter Bunny

April 20, 2011

Youngsters passing with their mamas
loved the display at Donaroma's:

Flowers with the Easter Bunny
on a spring day, bright and sunny.

Owing to its reproductive ability,
the rabbit is deemed queen of fertility.

Another fact for which our history begs
is the rabbit's Easter link with colored eggs.

As best my research can determine,
the origin was 18th century German.

We've yearned for warm days since last fall;
so here's wishing Happy Easter to all.
