As amulet dangled on her' dandled
Tis so sweet to trail the forlorn 
As no help came to a hearty hut

On the rafter was a treasure kept
To a loned...

A tomato and a potato lived in a fridge

And a bunch of other foods lived in their midst

Tomato and potato ruled this place

And all the foods lived in grace.

Of course until all the eggs were...

The Bunny

Soft, caramel-coloured paws,
Creamy, velvet underbelly,
Hoppity hop, hoppity hop.

Two ears appear,
Then the top of the head.

Hoppity hop, hoppity hop.

A hole in the greenhouse.

now grapes...
