The other day I came across
A rabbit, very small.
I asked him how his day was
( I know I’m off the wall.)

The bunny started laughing.
He said, “You crack me up.
Now pull yourself together sir,
Come over, and we’ll sup.”

I couldn’t wrap my head around,
How I would get in to
The rabbits tiny house, but I,
Bit off more than I could chew.

‘A piece of cake’ was what he said,
When asked how I would fit.
‘Slow and steady wins the race
Just watch how I do it.’

Throwing caution to the wind
I curled myself tight
More fit than fiddles though I was,
I didn’t fit, not quite.

Curiosity near killed the cat
Or a human in my case
So stuck was I, I couldn’t move
A problem I did face

I pushed and pulled and wheezed and huffed
The rabbit left me here
Until I got my second wind
I was stuck, with no one near

A fox was loping past right then
And as he went he thought
‘He’s off his rocker to go in
A rabbit hole for naught’

Instead of beating round the bush
I told myself “Now look”
“Get your act together Ned.
And out of this tight nook.’

To make a story very short
With much work I wiggled free
And then to make the  matters worse
I got stung by a bee

I know that they say live and learn
And look before you leap
But how was I supposed to know
It’d go downhill so steep.
