Egg Hunt

by Julie Craig
(United Kingdom)

She walked among the daffodils,
Eyes piercing.
Somewhere there was a treasure
Hidden within the yellow sea;
And there it was,
A silvery slip of oval goodness
Encasing a sweet wonder
Her fingertips could barely free
From its grasp.
Treasure found, she added it to
The basket filled with other such wonders,
A secret smile spreading across her face.
