From green gra**
To hard pavement
To black tar asphalt
You moved so swiftly
Like a fury with a purpose
Scurrying across the road
At lighting speed
We were driving
Down the same road
Our paths crossed
For only a fleeting second
A moment trapped in time
You were a white blur
Out of the corner of my eye
You darted so fast
Under the vehicle
No time to react
No time to stop
You were a rabbit in the road
That went splat
With a tiny crunch
Under the enormous wheel
Flattened to a bloody, furry mess
My friend was driving
And I was riding in the pa**enger seat
I told her I just saw a bunny
Go under the speeding truck
She insisted on going back to see
And sure enough
We found you dead
A dead rabbit in the road
She was sad
And so was I
Both sad riding back home
Your sudden d**h
Reminds me of how quickly
A life can be lost
Even when you least expect it
Thank you Mr. Rabbit
For this reminder
I'm so sorry you lost your life
But I'm glad you died swifly
Just like how fast you moved
Across that road
On that dark night.
