A rabbit noticed my condition
| ||
I was sad one day and went for a walk; | ||
I sat in a field. | ||
A rabbit noticed my condition and came near. | ||
It often does not take more than that to help | ||
at times-- to just be close to creatures who | ||
are so full of knowing, so full of love that they | ||
don't chat, they just gaze with their marvelous | ||
understanding. | ||
