The Rabbit of Summer's Cave

The Rabbit of Summer's Cave

A Story by Taylor Jackson
"

Yes, a rabbit with superpowers...deal with it :)

"
Look at the Rabbit of Summer's Cave,
A body small, but a heart so brave.
For each long year a prey to few, 
For a magic inside, that few only knew. 

For once the rabbit was left a pray,
laying deep within the Summer's Cave.
As death approached and fear seeped in,
A magic man appeared to him.

As pity fell, and tears they cried, 
An idea arose, and a life reprised. 
For the magic man would grant great power,
But in the tiny body, would it wait the hour..

For the predators came, and a prey no more,
for the rabbit grew, and its howl like a horn,
And the predators ran, and the rabbit scorned. 
And a feel of power, and a fear now torn.

As the rabbit turned, with tearful joy,
the cave was empty, and the rabbit employed.
And as the sun set now, a life reclaimed, 
a smile finally crossed, the Rabbit of Summer's Cave

This made me think of the "terrible", cave-dwelling rabbit in Monty Python's "Holy Grail" movie. That was very silly, but your cave-dwelling rabbit story is quite serious, of course, and sounds more like a fable or folklore. With some great rhyming, you tell an interesting tale.
