Wide awake to bunny tracks; a 420 character, 9-line poem

Tracking bunnies makes me hungry.

I spy long parallel splashes of hind feet followed by smaller fore paws;

the prints are 5’ apart; she’s going fast,

but here she paused to gnaw at the cherry trunk; only the hind feet show.

Next she hopped gently (the tracks just inches apart)

into the shelter of Hemlock trees.

I lift a bough to search for tracks & find Snipped Tips!

A bark & greens lunch. My tummy rumbles.

Tracking

What a wonderful way to begin my day. Your poem is magical, touching & down-to-earth.

I’m serious about learning the prints. The snow around the house is a chaotic calligraphy of different tracks. Time to sort it out. I wish I could see this bunny. I’m wondering if I’ll need to sit out some night.
