The Christmas Bunny
Reginald Rabbit awoke one day
And said he had something shocking to say…
He no longer wished to be an Easter Bunny.
(Doesn’t that sound absurdly funny?)
Marshmallow peeps and jelly beans…
Nope… Reggie Rabbit was no longer keen.
To make his disposition once again sunny,
Reg would become a “ Christmas Bunny”!
Making his way north, to the land of Claus,
Reginald traveled to fulfill his cause.
The trip was long and so very cold…
It took a bunny very bold.
Reginald arrived, knocking at Santa’s door
And told him of the burden he bore.
Met with a smile of warm Christmas cheer,
Santa told Reggie to join his deer.
Reg hip-hopped to where the reindeer slept…
Through the barn door, our brave bunny crept.
He worried that Rudolph might laugh… or worse.
His heart beat so fast, he thought it would burst.
But instead, Reg was greeted with kisses and hugs.
Our hero felt warm, welcome and snug.
The team was delighted to enlist another
And greeted Reggie as their long eared brother.
Lately, Santa had felt spirits dwindling…
But Reginald’s pluck was just the right kindling.
This Christmas, when eyes turn to seek Santa’s sleigh…
Look closely… Reggie the Rabbit may be leading the way.
Merry Christmas! Hoppy New Year!!
