Buckaroo

Baby, brown bunny
hiding in the weed forest
just to the other, on our dead end street.
Called my wife out
telling her...shhhh
that spot of brown, across the road.

She slowly stalked
barefoot, silent, investigating
calling back softly, where?
The tiny, brown moving
just ahead, in the weeds
you catch him, you can keep him.

Sending “wonder wienie”
back to Papa, on the porch
he didn’t quite get that far.
She shrieks in surprise
as baby “Bugs” comes streaking
she does a little dance.

Elvis the “wonder dog”
mouth hanging open in shock
as “fast food” streaks by.
Seven bounds of bunny tail
safely into the weeds again
minutes late... the dog barks.

“Yeah right!” Catch him?
she laughs as Elvis awakens
both poke around bunny exit.
We sit on our porch
and giggle at the dog
a minute late, a buck short.



bleeding...

"Tis ink coming
from his arm,
Captain!"

Elvis Without a Clue
(his Native-Prussian name?)
He is certainly a source of amusement to us!
thanks for the replies and encouragement...
