Second Easter poem: "The Bunny's Job and the Eggs"

Here is the second of the two Easter poems!  Enjoy, and Happy Easter!

 
 
The Bunny's Job and the Eggs
By: Vickram Bachan
 
 
It's that time of the year, when the Easter bunny come hopping along,
he leaves Easter eggs hidden everywhere, but to whom will they belong?
 
Children go hunting to find as many as they can,
searching this way and that as they all ran.
 
Trying to fill their baskets right up to the rim,
they look from morning until the light gets dim.
 
Whoever finds the most eggs is declared the winner and awarded the grand prize,
a beautiful and delicious chocolate bunny, usually of substantial size.
 
The holiday long weekend is spent with family and friends,
Easter is celebrated with loved ones, until the late hours descends.
 
As the older ones say their prayers, and the young ones eat too much chocolate,
Easter now comes to an end, and the next holiday awaits.
 
The Easter bunny retires for the year, after a job well done,
he hops away happily, knowing everyone had fun.
 
Twelve months later he returns once more, as the time has yet again come,
as spring is back, more chocolate eggs are left, just as the plants are in blossom.
