Rhyme for Easter
In tinsel coats with coloured bows The Easter eggs are laid in rows; And some are full and all are nice And every one has gots its price. In country markets children buy Eggs creamy-brown as apple-pie. They paint them red and blue, and play. At Hunt-the-Egg on Easter Day. But high above the merry crowd A sparrow nests, so fond and proud: “Come rain or sun, come calm or gale. My Easter eggs are not for sale!”
