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. | ||
