Tender shoot, run, run away,
Make your tracks soft, tender bunny,
Run, run away, by the light of the moon,
Into the deep of night you must go,
Escape far, far from home—
Run from your home, frightened bunny,
Come into my arms, I’ll hold you,
I’ll keep you safe from harm,
Lean into me and I’ll hold you,
I’ll kiss your furrowed brow—
A morning mist enshrouds you,
Like laughter falls from the sky,
Erases the tears that bound you,
Our hands interlaced,
Yours and mine—
