THE RABBIT
A rabbit came across our lawn. He wouldn’t eat the weeds; But nibbled all the tiny plants. And scratched up all my seedt
And when around the beds we put Wire-netting, strong arid fine. He stared as if to say: “Those beds Are no more yours than mine."
So underneath the -wire he made A hole, and soon we found. That every little plart of mine Was nibbled to the ground.
And then he washed his cheeky face Upon our silver dew; And kicked his legs as if to sav "I don’t ca.re much for you.’’
