Hop To It!

Rabbits lollop round about
and nibble at the treats
I carry in my bucket.
The grass tickles my feet,
and I have to keep them very still
while I watch the bunnies eat,
so they won't get frightened
and dash away from me...
I like to have them visit
and and say '"Hello!" you see.

  2. Aw... this is from your 'Poems for Children' book? (I'm sure you can come up with a catchier title for the book ;-)) Cute!
