Each Season A Rabbit

The ceaseless cycle of nature
Resplendent in its colourful dance
Varied as a circus
An endless advance

Each season a rabbit
In nature and in tone
George is our spring
The inspiration for this poem

George embodies gentleness
He is nature's love
It's soft start and youth
Warm tears cascading from above

Summer eclipses spring
Ragwort picks up what George had begun
Bold, fearless and proud
As lively and strong as the summer sun

But all things must end
Autumn hints at what is yet to be
Little Poppy is our autumn
Pretty as a frost upon a tree

The year turns and weather warns
Icy winter grips the land
Daisy, white as snow
Gives us hope that spring is near at hand
