Rob Rabbit

Another Children Poem in Response to Cathiesbloggs' Comment on My Poem "This Silly Old Cat."

Harry Gunawan
Rob The Rabbit loves to jump,
Thanks to his big rubber shoes.
He starts from a single hump,
Followed by a hasty whoosh.

Jumping high above the trees,
Jump and jump from roof to roof,
Everyone will think of this:
Rob Rabbit is in the groove!

Yet, Rob doesn't realize,
How troublesome he can be,
'Cause all his mammal buddies,
Don't like their roofs untidy.

One day no thump on the top.
They asks themselves, "Where is Rob?"
In the evening he shows up,
His sob is drawing the mob.

"What happenned jumpy Robby?"
- Asks his blue bunny buddy.
"Why are your ears down flabby?
And your face as blue as me?"

Rob Rabbit then cries with tears
that's poking everyone's ears:
"Someone swapped my dashing shoes
With slippers that I can't use!"

    Great poem. Reminds me of Bunny Two Shoes, a book I wrote for my Daughter but never published.

    To Steven West: You are right Steven, They might have a real good time! LOL :-D

    This was fun to read. I enjoyed the illustration that went with it. Now if Rob the Rabbit could meet up with Tigger, they'd have a real bouncy good time.

    Thank you for all those lovely inspiring comments My CP friends. I really appreciate them. No Cathy, I didn't give my right to AC. I have decided to stop publishing my content exclusively for AC long time ago. I only set my two of my poems exclusively and I regret it forever! X_x. Thanks for mentioning it Cathy. :-)
