Easter joy
she shares a cheesey smile -
all her eggs dyed

back against the wall
refusing to rise,
the homeless man
will this be
his abode for the night

How this reminded me of 70 or more years ago when the only Easter eggs were chickens eggs dyed pink with cochineal. Britain was at war and chocolate a rarity. Happy Easter to you.
ReplyDeleteWow, powerful 'kus. A bit on the sad side though especially the last two.
ReplyDeleteStill, happy easter Gillena
