A Rabbit's Luck

There was a rabbit in Tennessee 
His offspring numbering forty three
His manners much less than polite
Caught in a garden without an invite
Now he's on a plate you see; served as rabbit fricassee

Why is a rabbit's foot considered lucky? It wasn't lucky for the rabbit. Good write.

They are cute creatures, but not very intelligent ones. I used to raise them as well. Good write.
