Don't You Want Some Bunny to Love?

When the lettuce is super-size
And the carrots all up-rise



Don't you want some bunny to love?
Don't you need some bunny to love?
Wouldn't you love some bunny to love?
You better find some bunny to love.

 

When there are garden flowers to be fed
And the snow pea blooms are shed




Don't you want some bunny to love?
Don't you need some bunny to love?
Wouldn't you love some bunny to love?
You better find some bunny to love.



That nose, that bunny nose will twitch and twitch
Telling you to soil-enrich...



Don't you want some bunny to love?
Don't you need some bunny to love?
Wouldn't you love some bunny to love?
You better find some bunny to love.



Chomped greens filling flower beds
As Bunny eats all your cabbage heads.



Don't you want some bunny to love?
Don't you need some bunny to love?
Wouldn't you love some bunny to love?
You better find some bunny to love.



Bunnies who will not eat your garden can be found here.

Slishity-slosh

Rain

by Shel Silverstein

I opened my eyes
And looked up at the rain,
And it dripped in my head
And flowed into my brain,





And all that I hear as I lie in my bed
Is the slishity-slosh of the rain in my head.

I step very softly,
I walk very slow,
I can't do a handstand--
I might overflow,




So pardon the wild crazy thing I just said--
I'm just not the same since there's rain in my head.



Slishity-slosh for your wrist right here... and maybe some slishity-slosh for your ears, too.

A Rose is a Rose is a Quote

 

A revolution is not a bed of roses.
Fidel Castro

A true poet does not bother to be poetical. Nor does a nursery gardener scent his roses.
Jean Cocteau

 

An idealist is one who, on noticing that roses smell better than a cabbage, concludes that it will also make better soup.
H. L. Mencken

One may live without bread, not without roses.
Jean Richepin



Rock 'n' Roll, no roses or gardening.
Tina Charles

Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm schizophrenic, and so am I.
Oscar Levant

 

The hard part of writing at all is sitting your ass down in a chair and writing it. There's always something better to do, like I've got an interview, sharpening the pencils, trimming the roses. There's always something better to do. Going to a writer's club?
Jerry Pournelle

The sharp thorn often produces delicate roses.
Ovid



This is rather different from the receptions I used to get fifty years ago. They threw things at me then but they were not roses.
Susan B. Anthony

Treaties are like roses and young girls. They last while they last.
Charles de Gaulle

Roses that last, right here.

The Philanthropic Heliotropic

When Sunflower was a little bud
And sat outside to play
He followed, with his face, the sun
Until it dipped away.





As he grew older, all a-flower,
He soon changed his gaze
And kept his face turned to the spot
The sun was due to blaze.











Finally, when it was no more
His day in the sun
The face that launched a thousand blooms
A bird feeder had become.





Sunflower anklet and bracelet can be found here.
