I Am Late

In response to Bartholomew Barker‘s prompt at Living Poetry May 4, 2026

I am late! I’m always late!
Hop Hop Hop
If they would quit moving the date,
then I would not always be late.

April, March or March or April?
Hop Hop Hop
I am an Easter Bunny,
moving calendar dates is not funny!

On top of that I get so much flack!
Hop Hop Hop
Because they moved the date away,
I missed hiding eggs by one full day!

Christmas has its own holiday,
Hop Hop Hop
Same with New Years always the same,
I tire of playing this Easter game.

Enough of this back and forth,
Hop Hop Hop
No more of these Easter games for me,
I am now the everlasting Christmas bunny!

        I’ve never had to opportunity to get to know one. I’ve heard they’re clever and can be just as affectionate as a dog or cat.
