Good Bye, Tricky Guy

I could never hug him
Or cuddle him, it bugged him
I wished someday he'd nuzzle or even thrust 
His sweet nose against my neck or maybe bust

No, this guy proved to be the hardest
Didn't show, in me, the slightest interest
Sometimes I wondered if he was really straight
I needed his head pressed to my heart, miserable, I couldn't wait

I never allowed anyone to take him away from me
But when it was time to let him go free
And I figured I'd never see him again
I locked my emotions there and then.

The park owners gave him enough space
He was happy in the natural, no more caged up days
Instantly, he nuzzled up with another furry bunny snout
It was then that I thought: what was all my fuss about!

Good-bye
Tricky guy

Written for Wordle 94, tried to sneak in the words : Enough, Wish, Figure, Fuss, Miserable, Bust, Sweet, Straight, Interest, Prove, Again, Go.

To Robin, who we pray is now happily creating more bunnies in the wild! To Deepak, who has taken care of him for one whole year and who I think has grown much more stronger and kind spirited while living with Robin.

    1. Nah, don't thank me for this poem. Robin's part of my life, he couldn't be missed in my poems.

  4. Oh, this made me smile. this is a tricky bunny indeed...I thought for a time it was a man, which was (of course) your intent. You worked the words very well. Thanks for taking part in Poetry Pantry!

  5. Hi Chhavi, I loved reading this whirl. It's rare that I get a chance to read rhyming poetry and since I don't have the tiniest discipline to write it myself, I’m glad you wrote it. :)

    1. :) I've read quite some nice poetry that doesnt require any rhyme, and I've loved them. Personally, I can't write a piece without the rhymes, I love rhymes!! :) Thanks a lot.
