Sunrise
on Easter Morning
out in the yard looking for the Bunny!
Bright lights coming from my
studio
Inside, the lights were coming from My
Dollhouse
Since the beginning of January, I've been working on renovating My Dollhouse,
5 coats of paint on the roof
6 coats of paint on the exterior
the transformation has been a bit over-whelming, bringing back a flood of childhood
memories.
and it has been slow-going, I keep thinking to myself, this is wrong, how could I change this house so much with a little, actually a lot of paint!
I worry about what my family will think
and while all this conflict was going on in my head
hopped up to the front door with baskets of Easter eggs.
Luanne, a solemn serious kind of girl
met the Bunny at the door.
Come in
Bettina Bunny hopped in, and wandered into the
Dining Room
"Empty"
she peeked through the swinging Kitchen door
looking at the bugged-eyed girl
she left a chocolate egg for her,
Fleur Sauvage was having a stare down with the oven
Bunny wandered into the back hall-way and ran into Roy
Now Roy loved Bunnies
so she gave him two eggs
to distract him, so she could sneak past
Yum Yum Bunny!
he growled
Bunny smiled at Beach Babe, who only wanted a surf board
no chocolate
down the hall and up the stairs
at the top of the stairs
she was greeted by the Mouse Ladies
and at the end of the hall
she peeked into the Bathroom
Where a golden green Mermaid and her pet fish
where lounging in the bath tub
she left a egg
and continued on
In the next room, she found a lovely Lady Bird
sitting in a pretty cage
too many Kitties live here, she sang "I'm scared!"
but her pretty cage will soon be painted a glittery pink
and she will feel like a true Queen
In the next room Jazzy Blues played from an old radio
Adele sat in the corner, grooving to the tunes of New Orleans
she set the egg on the floor next to her, but I think Adele
would rather have a plate of beans and rice
Across the hall in the next room
The Attic Ghosts
were enjoying jumping on the bed
she quickly left some eggs,
these were some spooky girls!
The last bedroom was very bright and pink
Little Lilly played on the floor with the Siamese house cats
another egg-ball, what fun
at the bottom of the stairs
was another Gi -normous basket of eggs
But in this room the most wonderful music was being played by the elegant
Bunny hopped over and curled up on the couch
and listened contently
Luanne seemed absorbed and in a trance with every note
Outside, Bunny heard screaming and giggling
Fleur Sauvage was lounging on the roof
she is a crazy girl
the rest of the group wandered out
so I could take the group shot
Happy Easter
to all my friends
Come in and have some chocolate eggs!
and Yes Luanne, I promise to work on the house, next walls and floors
I promise
Time to go cook my Ham and Bake a Cake
