Bunny Rabbit Tango

Conejo Conejito Tango (Bunny Rabbit Tango) The mesmerizing twilight dims across a lake a warm breeze skims Buck, the handsome rabbit drinks, he has no doe; his love life stinks. He stares at his reflection, sighs when suddenly, his long ears rise he hears a low, soft rustle near he stands straight up, tries not to leer but in the gloaming, gold and green a gorgeous hare, a beauty queen! With one ear up, the other folds her peek-a-boo is flirty, bold. She holds his gaze and lifts her chin, he charges forward, she leaps to spin and drops back down, in perfect pose she lifts her paws to box his nose. The tango music fills their veins, the wind blows out their bunny manes they pivot, leap and promenade in moon-streaked shadow, cooling shade. The forward cross, the ocho, turn there is no step they need to learn the side secada, quick advance they both were born to dance this dance. The dance complete, he falls asleep she hops away, his snores are deep She looks back in fondness, glad she chose this buck to be a dad.
