David Michael Jackson Poems

I'm a rabbit

said Rolly Rabbit
...

Carry me home
home to the creek
and the water
and the leaves on the trees.
...

I only have apples for you,
Winesap apples
hanging red and green
from twisted trees
...

here you shall find me
must find me
we must meet
having met, we must
...

I checked my closet today
Shall I wear my feelings on my sleeve
Will it be my waistcoat of sadness
with the hopeless cape of yesterday
...

The fire is not out.
It burns like fire, like pain, like, you know, pain.
Water waiter, water for my fire, water, sweet clear cool water.
Words won't do. Words or work won't do.
...

Rolly The Rabbit Poem For Kids

I'm a rabbit

said Rolly Rabbit

I've been a rabbit my whole life.

I eat carrots and other plants.

I do my rabbit dance

I wiggle my bunny tail



When I see you I

hop hop hop away

then I stop

and look at you.



Oh Rolly you sure are a rabbit

said Spunky Squirrel

All you do is eat and

hop hop hop,

You can't climb a tree

like me.



You have no ears to speak of

said Rolly Rabbit

and your tail is

so long and so thin

why just look at the thing!

The dog would catch me

on the trail

if I had that tail.
