The Easter Accident An Easter Poem

Before I ever write this tale

I hope you will all forgive me

It was just a horrible accident

It was dark and I just couldn't see

I was driving home one night

On a narrow country road

It was raining, something awful

When I heard my tire explode

I lost control and couldn't stop

That's when I started to swerve

I heard a thump and a terrible scream

As I came to a stop in the curve

I thought I'd hit a possum

Probably even broken its legs

Imagine the horror that I was in

When I saw those Easter eggs

Yep, you guessed it

I had killed the Easter bunny

Ok, everybody stop laughing

Cause I really don't think it's funny

I tried to find that poor little rabbit

And maybe give him CPR

But when I finally found him it was way too late

He was stuck to the grill of my car

So, I picked up the little fellow's basket

And all those broken shells

I had to get rid of the evidence

Cause you know how a rotten egg smells

I buried him in a shallow grave

Under a giant oak tree

His basket and all the easter eggs

Are in my trunk under lock and key

Well, again, I want to apologize

So forget everything you saw

And at least we know that a rabbit's foot

Just isn't that lucky at all
