Learning From Rabbits

Rabbit

From Animals, Freinds & People

Daily life is filled with chaos and confusion
Its a symptom of the supersonic age,
But we can shield ourselves by living an illusion
And being like a rabbit in a cage.

Now a rabbit in a cage might be quite happy
To live its life behind protective wire,
But when its caging makes a claustrophobic snappy,
That’s like throwing cans of petrol on a fire.

The rabbit gets neurotic about freedom,
The carer goes berserk about the cage,
One needs spaces whilst the other doesn’t need them,
A reflection of the conflicts of the age!

The secret of successful co-existence
Between creatures of all types and frames of mind
Is tolerance affection and persistence
And knowing that your kind may be unkind.
