Rabbit - 30" x 40" $3,000

Many things surprised me
But under the moonlight
On a quiet street
I saw my reflection
As clear as a blue sky
And as certain as the crocus
A not-so-small creature
Gave me a side eye
Pausing to acknowledge our kinship
Then hopped ever so gingerly
Down the street
Pure white cottontail bouncing along
I smiled and my heart swelled
And I hummed a tune my mother sang
‘She’s late, she’s late
For a very important date
No time to say hello goodbye
She’s late, she’s late, she’s late’
This song was as much a part of me
As an old country road
Or buttermilk cornbread
And it felt like home
But the rabbit…oh the rabbit!
Off she went into the nightfall
And I didn’t feel
So alone.
