A Friendly Poem

Another friendly Poem The grass is deep green in the forest´s clearing rabbits and foxes play hide and seek only stupid rabbits get caught and devoured by sleek foxes; a game of death and life played out on a carpet of natural beauty. When the day is over the fox and rabbit display no rancor towards each other for this is poetry were no one really dies. Big forest rats, brown and silky, have a love life, give birth to pretty little rats that frolics with wild boars in the lyrical everglades. And little Red Riding Hood, laugh and laugh by the sight of bloodied fur on fallen snow. And the hex in the woods is not there to bite your balls off she wants you to be kind to her so she can sleep and don´t be left out in the carousel of sweet nature´s fun and games. A dreamy poem suitable for children and adults while sat by the fire eating apples.

a game of death and life played out on a carpet of natural beauty undisputedly two of your best lines. and these: "so she can sleep and don´t be left out in the carousel of sweet nature´s fun and games." What about Bambi - a happy prey for sure? I like toasted marshmallows by the fire.
