Easter - Hot Cross Buns For Yummy Fun Poem by Paul Warren

How many Easter Hot Cross Buns can you eat?
Now that Easter Monday is just about complete
Even if you didn't start early - just after Christmas!
It may be you can't eat any more buns or maybe less

Having them for breakfast, morning tea and lunch
Then afternoon tea, dinner and supper is a bit of a munch
I was told in the past Christian monks used to hand them out
To the poor who needed help to survive the year no doubt

But now they're just like Easter eggs in a moulded treat
And we now look to share them together in our family meet
So what do we make of it all - perhaps a bit of good cheer
For a world of terrorism, death and mayhem to wipe a tear.
