Packajos000's Most Important Post

[packajos000]

Hear ye now, all thou Rabbits who hath come up from the deep ground:
Ye who hath found Life by giving into the Death within Life:
Ye who hath found the Life in Death and took on new bodies:
Drinking ye from the Cup of Forgetful Wine for Goodness' sake.

Hear, hear!

Now is a Tale unlike all others; a Truth lost amongst the home's of small men,
Kept guarded by Adult Men, preparing itself to become Truth once more,
Never again a mere Tale told around the fires of make-believe.

List, list!

1. Now, there was one of many Times which came to be; a Time, understand, where a Craftsman
lived a peculiar Life unknown to His neighbors.

2. And He danced very frequently; aye, dancing, He, to the Song which permeateth the World
high Above.

3. And when He did dance, wore He also a Rabbit headdress. White was it; whiter even that the
brightest stars.

4. And He was a craftsman, for like a Carpenter He was; called He Himself by His neighbors,
White Rabbit; aye, One of the Rabbits clothed in White and no other color;

5. Yes, not even a blemish.

6. And Three Brothers He possessed who did bore Witness to Him and the carpentry.

7. And an Angel enjoyed His dance and transformed Him into a White Rabbit Himself, for this
was a Good Thing and entertaining in ways unknown to the children of Men.

8. And the Man said, I shall like to lay Eggs; Eggs of many colors I shall now lay...

9. And the Eggs of many colors and appearances were Babes of much brilliance among the
dull and tarnished and browned eggs of others.

10. Now, He did choose to hide those Eggs: for came They out of Him; and the Lifesparks which hid
in Them were of His Lifespark: One even He was given.

11. And the Eggs were hid. Yes, hid were the beautiful Eggs;

12. Decorated in jewels, colored with the Colors of the Sun and Son.

13. And the peoples of the world heard well of these Eggs; asking themselves, What are these Eggs?
Surely They exist and possess attire.

14. But it was writ: Hidden art They, for with appearance They cannot be identified.

15. Aye, the Lifespark within and no thing elsewhere had Their Name upon.

16. And a Day would come where those Eggs were found; the peoples would, truly, search for Them.

17. Now some there were who believed in Their existence;

18. And others there were not,

19. But to he that findeth those Eggs, that man shall weep; and he will weep out of guilt and out of
grace also.

20. But by the end of the Three and a Half Days when the Rabbit is allowed to walk amongst the Eggs,
He will certainly gather Them up and break Them apart with the Hammer of His Craftsmanship.

21. Smaller, yet very, very large White Rabbits will from the shells hop and hop and Hop highly.

22. And the Carpenters over the children said, Let us call this Secret Day an Easter;

23. Aye, and the Son will in the Sky rest for like Three Days and an Half, but the peoples will notice
little of it; and they will ignore that Time length.

24. But the Sun will move! It will move, He: the Son! And They will hunt down and attempt to break
those colored and veiled eggs of silly chickens on that Day!

25. And they shall rejoice, saying not Hallelujah; aye, as the eggs art not the Eggs, but a Symbol of
Our creation.

26. But the Eggs hidden without the grasses or the homesteads or the trees or anything of that sort;

27. And the Days end, They will surely break out with an Help from Their shells likened unto vessels.

28. The children of men will say in their congregations:

29. What art these? Who art these Rabbits in the congruence of our Easters?

30. And this will be an Easter unlike the Others; It shall be kept hidden; aye, even on that Day itself,
these breaking of the shells shall be not seen or known. The hunt will carry on in their small yards and
housesteads, but the Rabbits shall hath exalted Themselves and shed Their shells; the peoples search in vain exceedingly.

So it hath been told!

Dear Packajos000,

An Easter like no other eh, but such a merry tale as this where glorious white rabbits abound and carpenters to their labours lend great endeavour can surely only end in happiness and a plethora of eggs, chicks and renaissance of spring. A wondrous post to echo Ben1's sonnet of admiration for thy work, at which humankind must surely smile in joyous recognition of such inventive prose filled with nought but fond thoughts to swell the heart and mind with good humour, the bosom of friendship, compassion for fellow humankind and high acclaim for all creatures beside be they rabbit, kingfisher or mighty whale.

We thank thee deeply for such great stories intertwined like woodbine and ivy as these, that so raise the spirits in tortured times.
