How and where the rabbits know
___when to run
mind clock meters sound
superscedes sight to flight
one thousand steps before
they must implore their
feet to softly
___kiss the
______ground

Look around
your eyes will often
miss their flight
one thousand wishes
___ere you miss
their disappearance into night
so softly kiss the forest floor
one sound before they're all around
___till one by one
so often time fades into night

And still they might outdo the sun
one thousand whispers fade to flight
lost kisses when the clock impedes
___and ere they've gone
so softly rabbits run

I always love the note you end on... it's not the same note every time, but you sure know how to round out a piece, tie the melodic threads, resolve the rhythmic counterpoints.

I especially like these lines:
look around
your eyes will often
miss their flight
one thousand wishes
___ere you miss
their disappearance into night

As often happens when I click on one of your poems, I find a subtle sense of peace settling over me.

This was beautiful... such an innocent feel about it :)
