Life is a Garden Party

Bunnies

Despite hound dog, one day in the herb garden a bunny's nest is found.
A few weeks later cute little brown baby bunnies are found.
One day these bunnies chow down fresh vegetables they found.
Gardeners don't like having bunnies around, bunnies found.

Gardeners frown and find ways to deter bunnies they found
with fences or netting put around or box traps they found.
Chasing bunnies around and round might deter bunnies found.
Telling the hound dog to chase, sometimes works, the gardener found.

Sound might scare the bunnies away for awhile, it's found
but soon they bound around town without a sound, again found.
Hound dog gives up chasing around and round, gardener found.
Though a welcome sign is not found, bunnies again are found.

A plan:  hot pepper flakes sprinkled on the ground for bunnies found.
With frown, gardener bought by the pound in town where he found.
Here comes bounding bunny, though no sound on the ground can be found.
He nibbles on red hot pepper flakes down on the ground found.

Bunny bounds around and around.  With a big frown he's found
bounding round and round until right out of town he's found.
Bunny goes up the hill and down and is no longer found.
Gardener no longer wears a frown.  He sits down, where he's found.

Hopefully you chuckled over the misadventures of bunny.
When I composed this little rhyme, I did.  I thought it was funny.
Laughter is good medicine, we know.
It helps to lighten our sorrows.

May all your bunny troubles be solved this quickly.
You'll find a sense of humor eases burdens readily.
The burden may still be there
but humor lessens its wear.

Worry will take a back seat
when laughter and smiles greet
for a smile makes one feel better,
content, blessed, joyous, happier.

Sit for a minute and close your eyes,
concentrate and paste on a smile.
Don't you somehow feel better now?
Content, blessed, joyous, happier?  Wow!

Our mouths were filled with laughter,
our tongues with songs of joy...
The Lord has done great things for us,
and we are filled with joy.
Psalm 126:2-3

A cheerful heart is good medicine.
Proverbs 17:22
