Bunny
The stuffed bunny
approximates
what, not a rabbit,
real, running
from your backyard
into the woods,
so terrified is it of you.
Your plaything
bunny is your buddy,
your comrade
of the dreamy acres
and leafy shade.
Even before you thought
to look for one
creature to understand
you, you found
a soft body to fill with
life and to follow.
When one gives life to an ideal, it can be tough not to follow.
