A Date

 

Colorful
Duet of green and chick-yellow
Promises are rules of fingering, fingering practice
Lips brushing against rabbit fur to the point of pain
I'm late — No, you’re not late
The past and future lives
You’re becoming totally oblivious of

 

Poet's Note:
Ten year old Alice in Wonderland runs across past and

future lives. The rabbit attempts to keep his appointment.
