It is that time of year again

The Easter Bunny will soon be here

It is that time of year

Will he even get here, there or anywhere

with all the snow and ice due far and near

~

I found myself saying we may

have pineapple pizza, and then I say

we have no plans right?

It brought a tear, what a sight!

Almost a month away and not sleeping at night.

~

I remember being alone, so

alone on Easter Sunday not that long ago.

Hubby reminded me it was the pandemic! Oh!

That is why I was feeling so low!

~

Here I thought it was the full-moon

some will be fasting real soon

I didn't miss the pandemic

Both hubby and I did get sick

We are hoping for a reprieve

from the new strains some receive.

~

It is nice to not be missing family

I am always profamily

And the pandemic interfered with my sunny

disposition and all the money

I planned to receive and yes, it can't still be the moon

~

It wasn't the moon, as the full moon was on the 14th,

and it's now a week later and the umteenth

time the moon was blamed. The next one to blame is April 13th.

Can we end this real soon, maybe before noon

Authors note: I intend to revisit some previous posts that didn't get much attention. Some may not notice but I know if Dharrsheena reads it she will remember it, so it is on purpose and the revisited will be a telltale sign that the story was around before and you don't have to reread and this is why I had to mention. If you choose to read, you can see if you might recognize the changes I've made and like this version!
