This was her favorite holiday,
Perhaps because of the emerging green,
Perhaps because of the story of salvation
And the idea that anything is possible,
Even finding tinted eggs in the yard,
Even hidden by a giant benevolent rabbit,
Even forgiveness.
Four years ago this month she died.
Feeling unsettled, I came across this URL
She sent me two weeks before she fell ill.
She can make me laugh still,
And there is no small miracle in that.
