TO-DAY I met a rabbit in the path
Who stopped and looked at me,
While I was laughing at a frog
Hop sidewise from a bee.
The little rabbit's eyes laughed too.
He would have like to stay;
And if my clothes had been like his,
He might have come to play.
I wish I had a rabbit dress,
A furry one, from head to toe,
Then I could go away with him
From streets in line, all set just so.
I think my clothes are stupid things
To rob me of my friends,
But then, the kind of playmate clothes
I want, nobody lends!
