That Pesky Rabbit
With crisp, clean cuts like a gardening tool,
This rabbit has taken me for a fool,
He has snuck into my garden while I’m away,
And eaten all my flowering plants today,
I didn’t actually catch him in the act,
But I recognize his poop and, in fact,
There are probably more than one of them,
Having a buffet on all the delicious stems,
But alas, Elmer Fudd and I won’t be had,
I have a plan and it is ironclad,
I have put up a screen, nice and tight,
Along my fence, where they sneak at night,
I dare them to try and feast again,
I trust they won’t be able to get in,
I take great pride in my flower beds,
And don’t want to find my plants in shreds,
These bunnies may be cute, floppy ears and such,
But in this instance, I don’t like them very much,
Stay out of my garden you pesky rabbit,
Find a different place to inhabit!
