Maternal Instincts

With magnetic fascination akin to domestication I connect with Ms. Rabbit’s dawn. Four babies she’s laid in my lawn. Provoked by supernal emotion stirred by a sense of procreation I cancel lawn fertilizer. Grass cutter? I will advise her. Unparalleled admiration drives my kids to affirmation. They promise to protect new pets no bikes, baseballs or bayonets. Deeply compelled, preservation builds a hutch in exaltation. Field glasses from my window pane track nature’s risks: sun, wind and rain.

My return thanks to you, Line. A most unusual kind of collaboration contest. My account is based on experience which can be a good thing (for the rabbits). Appreciate the placement.
