Ode to a Leporid

 Image: The End of Banality by Starla Halfmann


Coming soon are spring Easter hours

and fond memories of shining flowers

in soft dewy grasses

that wet our small asses

when squatting down, hoping

a fine Leporid ceased loping

in that sweet spot to gently hide

the prized colored egg, great pride

of its enchanted young finder.

Thanks Easter Bunny! You couldn't be kinder.



Written for Friday Flash 55 - My post in exactly 55 words- For the G-Man.

    Oh! If it's warm and sunny I'd love to hide Easter eggs outside. But now there's nobody to look for them.

    This is quite lovely. We didn't care if our small asses got wet. We wouldn't have even noticed.

    Brian~ We all did at one time! I am so tickled thinking of you coloring and hiding eggs. Good Dad!

    Rob-bear~ I do love that Easter Bunny. Best wishes to you this holiday, too. :)

    Yvonne~ We really didn't care, did we? Funny how I remember that it happened, though! Wishing you a warm weekend with happy moments.

    G-Man~ Because you called me Lydia Dear I am messaging the Easter Bunny to bring you his/her (gotta be pc) prize egg. Have a great weekend. :)

    PattiKen~ Thank you!

    izzy~ Happy Spring to you, and I wish our weather would catch on (brrrr). Don't worry. I had to look up that family species Latin name for bunnies.

    mythopolis~ Indeed, myth. But that is what memories are for. And that is what friends are for...to share the memories.

    Phivos~ Thank you. Same to you!

    kj~ I hope Emily Rabbit liked this (including the small asses part) and I wish you both a great weekend.
