I've tried to rise to Josie's challenge - this is a follow up to Rabbit rabbits.
Tracey
When Meghan gave me my tea
She didn't close my hutch properly
I nudged my nose on the door
And jumped down onto the floor
I met some rabbits who were grey
And asked if they wanted to play
We chased each other around
Then they showed me underground
It wasn't as nice as my hutch
I didn't like it very much
It was dark and very smelly
And now I had rumblings in my belly
I said goodbye and hopped off home
Vowing never again to roam
Meghan gave me a great big hug
And filled my bowl with tasty grub
I thought it would be fun to run away
But home is where I want to stay
I'd much rather sleep in my cosy hutch
If that's OK, thank you very much

The Challenge Written by Josie (2777 comments posted) 30th October 2007 | | Congratulations on rising to the challenge. May I ask you if your rabbit regularly runs round the garden? We had a rabbit when I was a child who had complete freedom of the garden, but, his silly adventure ended up with him being killed on the road. He thought that burrowing out of "aradise" was a big adventure, but sadly he didn't get back to his hutch. | Written by tpowell (105 comments posted) 30th October 2007 | Thanks Josie, Snuffy has a run for the garden as it is not escape-proof and I have a labrador as well. Snuffy also comes inside in the kitchen so he can have a good scamp around. Sorry about your rabbit, the pet shop where we bought Snuffy flooded two days after we got him and all the animal drowned | Written by Fledermaus (3246 comments posted) 31st October 2007 | We used to have rabbits too when I was a kid. They were experts at escaping. They seemed to have a special taste for roses and a talent for digging hidden tunnels Nice piece of writing. | HI Tracey Written by jean.day (2266 comments posted) 9th November 2007 | I usually don't read much of the poetry section, and I am awaiting your next instalment of your book. I like the sentiment and the story line for children of this poem, but I'm afraid I had a few problems with the scanning.
