Bunny Fear
Stuck in the brambles
The bunny just waits
Waiting for Red Hawks
Flying high with their mates
For no one can tell him
How fast that hawk flies
He scoops down and grabs one
No time for goodbyes.
Run before his claws sink deep.

Why is the bunny never the victor?! Maybe the hawk won’t be able to get through the brambles…… One an only hope!

The sad thing is bunnies have suck weak hearts as it is. My neighbor and best friend is a wildlife rehabilitator and everytime she gets a bunny for any reason, they almost always die. Their poor little hearts can’t take the stress.

I feel the fear of the bunny, for hawks are fearless.

Oh my! I was writing a poem on a similar subject! Still tweaking it and it won’t be ready for publishing for a couple of weeks… I love the visual of the snatch so fast that no good-byes can be spoken!

You are very right about that. We are all waiting to see if COVID hits us or someone close by. We are all waiting to see if the economy sinks us, if we aren’t treated kindly…so many things.

I just wish all the haters could be put on their own little continent. Imagine how wonderful the world would be if there wasn’t hate. I don’t mean a utopia where everyone likes each other, just a place where there is hatred and purposeful hurt.
