Our Woodland Revival Jubilee

woven into a series of Rubaiyat stanzas

Revival jubilee gets underway
when morning sunshine wakens forest fay,
who mobilizes Disney's motley crew
to glorify the Easter holiday.

My cottage porch provides the perfect view
to witness festive woodland rendezvous
when Unicorn comes prancing down the lane,
parading past the bluebell patch. Wahoo!

Bugs Bunny joins memorial campaign
with song and dance routine to entertain,
inspired by sunflowers on yonder hills,
dispatching pleasure all across terrain.

The robins, sparrows, doves, and whipporwills
contribute fluorish of refreshing trills
with butterflies in aerial ballet,
while bumblebees keep buzzing daffodils.
