I saw this on a breeder's website and thought it appropriate for this time of year
Easter Bunny by Mary Brandolino
In memory of all the bunnies that could not be saved
I remember Easter Sunday it was colourful and fun
The new life that I'd begun in my new cage
I was just a little thing when they brought me from the store
and they put me on the floor in my new cage
They would take me out to play Love and pet me all the time
Then at days end I would climb into my cage
But as days and weeks went by I saw less of them it seemed
Of ther loving touch I dreamed of in my cage
In the night outside their house I felt sad and so neglected
Often scared and unprotected in my cage
In the dry or rainy weather sometimes hotter sometimes colder
I just sat there growing older in my cage
The cat and dog raced by me playing with each other only
While I sat there feeling lonely in my cage
Upon the fresh grass children skipped and laughed all day
I could only watch them play from my cage
They used to take me out and let me scamper in the sun
I no longer get to run in my cage
Once a cute and cuddly bunny like a ball of cotton wool
Now I'm grown up and forgotten in my cage
I don't know what went wrong at home I did inhabit
I just grew to be a rabbit in my cage
But they've brought me to the pound I was once loved and enjoyed
Now I wait to be destroyed in my cage
Easter and Bunnies don't mix
