A Poem in Praise of Rabbits
A bunny is a quiet pet,
A bunny is the best thing yet,
A bunny never makes a sound,
A bunny's nice to have around.
Puppies whimper, bark and growl;
Kittens mew and tomcats yowl;
Birdies twitter, chirp and tweet;
Moo-cows moo, and lampkins bleat;
Some creatures bellow, others bray;
Some hoot, or honk, or yap, or neigh;
Most creatures make annoying noises,
Even little girls and boyses.
A bunny, though, is never heard,
He simply never says a word.
A bunny's a delightful habit,
No home's complete without a rabbit.
This poem is from the classic children's book "Marshmallow" by Claire Turlay Newberry
Ohohoh! I knew this was from Marshmallow! It’s one of Miss a’s favorite books. You should publish the other poem she writes about the bunny. :P

Malia that is so perfect. I am going to look that book up right now. Hope you are having a wonderful spring with your daughters and lovely mother. Enjoying the longer days and fields of tulips in Laconner right now. So good to hear from you.
