    flickering lights
    the rabbit disappears
    down an Alice Hole
    and me? I’m all alone
    a right thing done wrong

  3. My appreciation to each of you for your encouraging comments. It's always gratifying to know that something we write actually works for others. Thank you so much!

  4. I really enjoyed the wonderful juxtaposition of the mind and nature, and it’s quickness of words matched the essence of our minds and rabbits. Both deep and humorous.

  5. Oh – yours too?

    night wind neither here nor there my thoughts

    Well done, Susan.

    Best, Bill Kenney
