EVERY BUNNY NEEDS SOME BUNNY

Bobby O



EVERY BUNNY NEEDS SOME BUNNY 

My dog Coltrane bolted quickly inside when I let him in from the yard. Turns out I noticed he was gently holding a baby rabbit in his mouth like it was a prized possession.  The bunny scampered under the TV stand when the dog let go and I spent the next two hours trying to catch it , after first corralling my dog, who was knocking many things over chasing it. He found it and he wanted to keep it. Had the pursuit been on video it could have rivaled the Keystone Cops as the agility and cunning of that rabbit , over and over, made me look foolish as I alternately cajoled and cursed on each failed attempt to secure it. I’m still laughing at how helpless I was. You can’t make this stuff up.

  • Comment from author about the poem: It’s important to not only share triumph , those who know the thrill of victory , surely are aware and humbled by defeat. This story portrays a flustered old man helpless against a tiny bunny just after his dog , his loyal companion tricked me out cuz he knew I couldn’t stop him. Freaking cold hearted w no sentiment or conscious. And I love him.

      Bobby this one is a little late for Easter. It reminded me of episodes that I have had in the past. It gave me a smile.

        You’re a good sport and sometimes I get a little bratty. But you were smooth
