The Fate Of The Giant Rabbit Poem by Chris Zachariou

The rabbit swam down the river
with a bag of onions on his back.
He was tired but had no choice.
Thomas, in the guise of a staring sun
was on the lookout for a lazy rabbit.

Rabbit stew was his mantra for the day.
The giant rabbit was furious.
'Why not humans for the grill'
the rabbit thought, 'this is not fair'
but the bunch of onions floating on the water
was not tall enough to hide in.

He pondered,
'Would diving under the water help? '
Alas, it was not to be; onions go well with rabbit.
Rabbit stew was on the menu for the day.
