Bunnies

Hip hop through the forest,
Unaware of what lies ahead,
Admist the breezy chorus,
Is lil bunny Winnifred.

Alongside mama and her suitor,
She scurries across the ground,
With a stroke of innocence on her fur,
She has no idea what surrounds.

While mama is off seeking clover,
The suitor deals with poor Winnifred,
A quick push than a bite and it's over,
Across her fur a stroke of red.

She runs away from him,
At least she tries,
She wonders why her fate's so grim,
Until mama returns she cries.

Hip hop in comes mama,
With plenty to feast,
She notices the red but thinks less drama,
Unknowing of the beast.

Winnie rushes to her side,
Burying her head in mama's fur,
A loud boom as the shell collides,
Leaving Winnie unsure.

"Mama!" she cried out,
"Where have you gone?
I can't go on without,
What I done wrong?"

But she did not answer her,
As Winnifred's coat became dark,
Off she ran from the suitor,
She took off like a spark.

She crashes into another bunny,
By the name of Lou,
He said "come closer honey,
You'll love the things I show you."

From afar Bear, another dark coated rabbit,
Having watched her in the past,
Caring about her life had been a habit,
He was hoping he could help her at last.

But Lou took her away,
Darkening her beyond recognition,
When Bear saw her to his mismay,
She lost the last of he ambition.

The innocence that he used to adore,
Had been swallowed by misfortune,
The world showed her abhor,
It blew it out of proportion.

Hip hop  through the meadow,
He chased her until they were vis a vis,
She looked straight at the fellow,
And said "Just look at me.

I'm a mess, my white has faded,
I don't have hope, I don't have trust,
I must be jaded,
Every drop of my innocence has oxidized to rust".

With a gleam in his eyes,
Bear used his nose to push up her chin,
He said "Stop the lies,
No need to beat yourself up again.

I don't care that your coat's not white,
Or that a lot of things have come and gone,
I just want to hold you tonight,
And show you what you've had along.

In your worn body I see beauty,
Amongst your eyes I still see a future,
I'll show you hope and I'll show you duty,
I'll prove that you can still become pure.

Because in my eyes I still see white,
Beyond your sorrows I know you can still make funnies,
Together, with a little encouragement you'll be alright,
And we can live like any other, because in the end we will be just two bunnies."

Hip hop across the ground,
Spring has come around to her,
Reborn her beauty one again resounds,
As the rain slowly washes away, the dark from her fur;

It glimmers, it shines,
Under the sunlight,
More vibrant than a diamond,
Is her fur, pearly and white.

Isn't so Far Away

The horizon isn't so far away,
It is getting closer every day;
What is yet to come isn't crystal clear,
However I'm prepared to commandeer.

I'll take the initiative so relax,
If come scrutiny I will face the facts;
Whatever they front I will overtake;
We cannot let our fear decide our fate.

So let's march in line and we'll persevere,
Our camaraderie and love they'll revere,
Never will we have felt so very free,
Our story will go down in history.

One day we will look back and remember,
How we refused to ever surrender;
Even though the world had us separate,
It was impossible to keep us split.

As the future isn't so far away,
It is getting closer every day;
It is in our hands to make it occur,
Of this verve I could never be more sure.
