Spring Hunting

In springtime the rabbits in our canyon
                                  Produce with prolific abandon
                                      Our dogs take up chase
                                     To hunt down post haste
                               But never can catch up or bag one.

Tim Smith February 19, 2015 at 4:25 AM I had one of mine drag in a baby bunny...not a pretty sight...probably harder to catch in the open canyon...excellent limerick.... Hugs Tim Laura Leiser February 19, 2015 at 2:39 PM Yikes! Sometimes there have been bunnies in our yard, too. But the dogs haven't managed to catch one yet!

Paul Callus February 17, 2015 at 2:19 PM Love this one, Laura! Reminds me of Disney cartoons, somehow! All the best. // paul Laura Leiser February 17, 2015 at 4:20 PM Thanks, Paul. Glad it sparked your imagination! :)

C.M. Davidson-Pickett February 16, 2015 at 7:57 PM Love the imagery. I can picture the rabbits laughing at the dogs...brilliant! Laura Leiser February 16, 2015 at 9:56 PM It is funny to see the dogs go at it! In vain, of course! :)

Kim Merryman February 16, 2015 at 5:46 PM I can just picture a couple of dogs chasing after hundreds of rabbits without any luck. Good limerick! Love, Kim Laura Leiser February 16, 2015 at 6:04 PM Thanks, Kim. It's true! Those bunnies are a lot faster than my dogs, that's for sure! :)
