EASTER QUESTIONS in haiku
How come it’s bunnies
that deliver chicken eggs
for Easter baskets?
Who told this story?
Where did the details come from,
some odd fairy tale?
Bunnies and baskets—
What’s up with all those found eggs?
Make mine deviled, please.

SHARING STORIES is a weekly column for and about the 50 plus crowd living in the Puget Sound region. Send your stories and photos to ariele@comcast.net. Tell local or personal stories; discuss concerns around aging and other issues; share solutions, good luck, and reasons to celebrate; poems are fine too. Pieces may be edited or excerpted. We reserve the right to select among pieces. Photos are always a plus and a one-sentence bio is requested (where you live, maybe age or career, retired status, etc.).
