BEWARE THE RABBIT

Millie had a rabbit, white of body, pink of eye

and so she called him Blackie, though no one could fathom why?

She took him right inside the house which mother did abhor.

He chewed the mat and used to leave small droppings on the floor.

Millie loved her bunny taking him were ere she went,

she even took him with her camping out in brothers tent.

Brother Billy was a bully and with Millie he would fight,

he decided he would scare her in his tent that very night.

When his sister was asleep he tip-toed right outside,

he took with him a big white sheet, for neath it he would hide.

He also had a little torch turned on beneath his chin,

then moaning and a-groaning he created such a din.

But Millie she slept heavy and she didn't even wake

but Blackie hearing noises for the outside he did make.

At first the only thing he saw was just a big white sheet

but after close inspection, sticking out were two pink feet.

With ten long toes just lying there and glowing in the night,

Blackie just thought 'carrots' and the big one he did bite.

Billy squealed out loudly, lost his balance and fell crash,

rolled down in the bull-rushes and in the pond went SPLASH!

Blackie back inside the tent touched Millie with his paw,

Millie just turned over, then she let out one big snore.
