Jan Allison Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

Funny Bunny

I had a pet rabbit called Sue
She mated with a kangaroo
The offspring I named Thumper
He’s an excellent jumper
And he lives in a rare breeds zoo

The poem was written before I found the picture which is of a Jeroba which looks like a cross between a kangaroo, rabbit and mouse

Lisa Ricci June 15, 2017 at 5:40 AM Good Morning Jan. The title caught my eye because each Easter when I was a child we had bunnies. We readers see the meaning and association. Well done in format and theme. Enjoy the morning and day.
