Notes About The Poem

For Eve Roper's nursery rhyme contest

Coco the Chocolate Bunny


Coco the chocolate bunny, was so soft, furry and funny. Loved to fill her little tummy with green veg ever so yummy! A little shy with big brown eyes, loved to read, so she would be wise. But other bunnies were afraid, with Coco they never played. They were white with eyes of blue, didn't like how loud she would chew. Told her that she needs to change. Thought her colour was a bit strange. One day a new bunny came to stay; said: 'Hey Coco let's eat and play.' 'My name is Empress, I love to hop, lets see who can bop to the top.' Her fur was brown with a blonde brow, with white patches just like a cow. The other bunnies looked on in awe, at how high they jumped from the floor. 'Hey you guys come bop and hop.  It's so fun we don't want to stop.' As they bopped and hopped in the game, they realised they were all the same.

This is fun and cute and made me smile to some extent. Although i dont always understand jokes this is fun plus it leaves an inspiring and motivational message here, that proves that despite one looking different they are still the same, we are all human; and children need to be educated on this subject from a young age so your story here is perfect, to inspire all kids to include and accept all shades of life and different individuals. Brilliant! I love the rhymes and concept and flow of this.

This is a cute lil poem for the contest, Silent One. I love how you've woven a micro tale about the 'Coco' bunny and how he felt lonely unless an 'Empress' bunny came in his life..Finally showing that they were all the same, yet there's always something unique in each one of them..This is truly a meaningful poem and you've so wonderfully portrayed your brilliant skills here.. Love, compassion, empathy and understanding - these allow every soul to breathe 'life' with so much joy! Adorable write

There's always someone willing to show the rest of the world how cute and different you are. All the same regardless of how we look or act. The best of its kind, I enjoyed reading and singing it. Well-written, Silent one, I hope this tops the chart.

Oh how cute , it seems we all thought the same, with love and a generous serving of kindness, Empress brought Coco into the fold ' as they bobbed and hopped in the game, they realized they were all the same' Best of luck luck in the contest SO. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Yes, we are all equal and we can all jump.. maybe not as high as each other, but we are all the same underneath the fur.. Thank you Jennifer, always a pleasure to hear from you..

This is the cutest nursery rhyme I have read of late. The tone and choice of words are simply ideal for children's taste . It contains a beautiful message that beneath every difference, all are basically the same. I am sure this will be a top winner.

A very humorous tale, with a powerful message. Once you can see past the color of our fur, we will find out that we are all equal. Marvelous write, my friend.
