Runaway Bunny

There once was a runaway bunny who journeyed high and low,
Hid in murky caves and dark caverns, she was always on the go,
Her father searched constantly and followed in his divine gear,
No matter where this bunny fled to he always somehow did appear,
The thought of yielding and surrendering was difficult for her to convey,
The father watched intently as his bunny slipped away,
But one night came that this bunny had fallen completely down,
So hard that she had shattered every bone and was all alone on earths cold ground,
While she screamed in sheer horror as the pain echoed throughout space,
She was suddenly scooped up with warmth, love and amazing grace,
Though she thought that she had run too far and for way too long,
And certainly did not deserve to be rescued for all her actions were wrong
That didn’t stop this bunny’s father from salvaging his little hare,
She did not realize wherever she ran he would always be there,
That was the night she had learned something that her travels had never taught,
True love is a treasure that can never be sold or bought,
This bunny decided that she would no longer run,
For she was tired, broken and could not continue on,
One taste of Agape love,
Turned this little bunny into a magnificent dove.
