Yes...I know it is NOT Easter, but I promised a few souls that I would eventually write this epic poem. SO, here goes!
*clears throat*
A velociraptor traipsed through a forest glade
And came across some brightly colored eggs a bunny made.
Instead of gobbling the small treats placed delicately in the flower bed,
He snarffed the legendary bunny up instead!
When the lizard saw all the goodies that would be laid to waste,
He devised a plan and made great haste.
When the lizard saw all the goodies that would be laid to waste,
He devised a plan and made great haste.
He donned some spiffy rabbit ears and a fluffy tail,
Grabbed the basket and without fail,
Slunk from house to house to deliver the treats inside the bunny's pail.
He knocked politely on each cottage door,
Smiled crookedly, and knocked each child to the floor
Awarding each one their special Easter treat
And leaving quickly in search of more tasty morsels to eat.
Soon, the beast's basket began to look bare
And the cottages of the villagers who once dwelt there.
The raptor stood and scratched his head,
Looked around at all the dead,
And began to think as the sun went down
Of how many children were waiting for the Easter bunny in the next town.
So with a twinkle in his eye and toothy grin,
the Easter Velociraptor stalked off into the sunset to celebrate his new favorite holiday once again.

Tah-dah!
There you have it folks- a somewhat epic poem about a horrific event in history.
Be grateful that bunnies can reproduce quickly...and that there was an Ice Age.
Happy Easter when it comes...again!
