Comment from Jean Lutz
Except for the snow, this describes the scene in my front yard. My neighbor decided to buy chickens and brown rabbits to produce food. Good idea, except he did not know how fast rabbits procreate. When he gets too many he will let a couple at a time out of the cage in hopes they will take to the woods and fields that surround us. Not a chance. They are used to being cared for. My yard seems to be their favorite spot to come beg. Once I left the trunk of my car open while I brought in groceries. So help me one of the danged rabbits what up on hind legs to see what was in the trunk. Anyway I got a laugh from your fun piece. Best wishes with your entry.

I made a short trip to San Francisco and fell way behind, but was pleased to find this recent post of yours as I try to catch up.
I admired your use of the nonet form to describe the behavior of hares, about which I knew little. I enjoyed your shift in season to springtime. Cheers and best wishes in the contest- Joan

I like your poem. The title made me think it would be more humorous than it was, like maybe something more for kids, like a rabbit playing tricks on somebody, but it was still enjoyable to read.

This is a fun entry for the Nonet poem contest accompanied with a cute picture. I did ponder this line though -
"of evening? Hot hare like"
It is to be six syllables but I count seven. You may want to shorten - evening - ev'ning - or reword the line.
Just food for thought. Best of luck in the competition. ~DD

I think this one would be have more impact if you centered it to make it look and read like a nonet. In saying that however, the piece is good writing and I enjoyed the read. xoxo Kiwi
