Easter Bunny Poem
Jul 10, 2011 by HRS
by Mary Brandolino
In memory of all the bunnies we couldn't save.

I remember Easter Sunday

It was colorful and fun

The new life that I’d begun

In my new cage.

I was just a little thing

When they brought me from the store

And they put me on the floor

In my cage.

They would take me out to play

Love and pet me all the time

Then at day’s end I would climb

In my cage.

But as days and weeks went by

I saw less of them it seemed

Of their loving touch I dreamed

In my cage.

In the night outside their house

I felt sad and so neglected

Often scared and unprotected

In my cage.

In the dry or rainy weather

Sometimes hotter sometimes colder

I just sat there growing older

In my cage.

The cat and dog raced by me

Playing with each other only

While I sat there feeling lonely

In my cage.

Upon the fresh green grass

Children skipped and laughed all day

I could only watch them play

From my cage.

They used to take me out

And let me scamper in the sun

I no longer get to run

In my cage.

Once a cute and cuddly bunny

Like a little ball of cotton

Now I’m grown up and forgotten

In my cage.

I don’t know what went wrong

At the home I did inhabit

I just grew to be a rabbit

In my cage.

But they’ve brought me to the pound

I was once loved and enjoyed

Now I wait to be destroyed

In my cage.

RR Submission: Motley & Ashley

Motley & Ashley are a bonded pair available for adoption from the Indiana Chapter of the House Rabbit Society.

Motley was submitted through the RR Facebook page because he has been dubbed "MOTzzarella-Cheezy-Poof" because of his beautiful, HUGE, white tail. (RR is getting tail pictures because of a passing comment about Tall Tail Tuesdays, but we won't go there.)

Anyway, RR did not want to just show Motley's tail because he is bonded with Ashley, so now we can show both of them.


ADOPT!
Don't shop.

Bunny Thing Gift

In a recent post, I noted that Dr. Mrs. Bunnymom brought me a couple of gifts from her recent business travels. This is the other bunny thing she brought me. I wish the pictures could do it more justice. It is a really beautiful piece of pottery ... amazing texture and bunnies everywhere.

Of course, it will be added to the Bunny Things page.

Another bunny-human addition to the look-a-like page.

"Boss Bun" (and aren't we familiar with that attitude) from Cool Hand Luke

This will be added to the RR bunny-human doppelganger page.

One day in the bunny sunbeam

Evolution of bunny interaction in the morning sunbeam...

Mr. Bunya finds it first and
settles into the bunny loaf position.

Miss Ethel hops by and
sees an opportunity to snuggle.

Ethel aligns herself to snuggle.

Ethel gives Bunya a little loving.

And she settles in against Bunya for a double warm snooze...
sunbeam and Bunya.
