RABBIT DREAMS

These rabbits may be made of clay –
but in my dreams they’re real to me.
I’m chasing them through grassy fields.
The sun is warm – I’m running free.

It’s true that I’m an indoor cat –
and that’s where I’m content to stay.
But in my dreams I’m chasing rabbits –
on a perfect Summer day.
