The Ever Elusive Eggs-capade

A Tongue Twister written for Week 15, Poetic Explorations.


Every Easter, ebullient children eagerly search for Easter eggs.
Elderly eardrums ache from youthful enthusiasm.
Elated children hunt elusive eggs as envious adults enjoy the earnest endeavors.
Everybody agrees--the Easter Bunny's event exceeds everyone's expectations.



Author's Notes:
A Tongue Twister poem is made up of lines/verses that are hard to say when read aloud
by using similar consonant sounds in succession (use of alliteration). In other words, the
poem ties your tongue into knots. This form does not require end or internal rhyme.
