See the hare run past the turtle
jump off track and over a hurdle;
to say "I will finish before you" mack
turtle raced so slowly, some days turn black

The hare sought comfort in tree hollows
was there other bunnies were sure to follow,
not to mention a young lady who's name was Alice
he ran away from from her with no intended malice.

Magicians still pull rabbits out of hats
with longer ears they'd be pulled by that;
multiply too with no enemy in sight
set a pace for greyhound's run delight

With long hind legs given to sharp leaps
contrasted to a poor performer, one doesn't keep;
the word is also used to connote chatter
as Alice found, once she was lead to a hatter.
