A wooden rabbitA Poem by willweb~
She chased a wooden
rabbit through a forest colored
green Down a path with curvy
corners of the likes she’d never
seen
He was tinted like a
rainbow, reds and blues and dusty
pink, Yellows, purples and
some orange, every shade that you can
think
She had seen him in the
garden, eating carrots by the
pound Shouting out, “They’re
not for bunnies,” as he darted ‘cross the
ground
With a tail of painted
cedar and two ears of treated
pine Sanded smooth around the
edges with abrasive, extra
fine
He was hipping, he was
hopping, he was jumping in the
air With a little rabbit
smirk as if he didn’t have a care
She was giggling,
pursuing, as her hair did find the
wind Always looking for a
shortcut or a new path to begin
While the bunny ran like
lightning, underbrush went by real
fast Hiding deep within the
thicket as the girl went racing
past
Searching every nook and
cranny, while the evergreens all
waved When she grabbed a piece
of celery, in her pocket she had
saved
Then she found a shaded
alcove, sat there quiet, not a
peep And she closed her eyes,
just slightly to pretend she was
asleep
Well, the bunny found
her resting with the vegetable in
hand With his tummy oh so
hungry and the celery so grand
When he took a bite she
grabbed him and she hugged him very
tight And this little wooden
rabbit found it all to be
alright
Now the two of them they
wander, through the forest
colored green Having so much fun
together, it is such a wondrous
scene
There were only now two
worries, whether mornings,
whether nights For her, splinters were
the problem, for the hare, it was
termites
