20) Goodbye

244 21 13
  • Dedicated to my little red hare
                                    

The true red hare is dead

and bleary eyes stare up

pale warmth, the true red hare

is dead now, fur still warm

and mouth ajar, teeth jagged,

paws stiffening, soft still

the true red hare has died

in the early hours of a tear stained

Monday morning,

my red hare is dead now and

I miss him so.
