It's Christmas time and all is fine <br />Another truce is holding fast, <br />No chasing round the room today <br />We've now made up at last. <br /> <br />We're now great friends, I can report, <br />And I just love that bunny, <br />And all that trouble that we had <br />Was really not so funny. <br /> <br />Zach now is most affectionate <br />Towards me, and it's sweet <br />When round the fire we cuddle up, <br />His ears flopped o'er my feet. <br /> <br />I watch his twitching whiskers <br />When he is fast asleep, <br />He really is so beautiful, <br />I love that bun' a heap. <br /> <br />And I am now Zach's guard-dog <br />And if anyone comes near <br />And tries to hurt or harm him <br />I will bite them on the ear. <br /> <br />For now we are the very best <br />Of buddies and I'm glad, <br />Zach told me that I'm quite the bestest <br />Friend he's ever had. <br /> <br />So now our lives together <br />Are as happy as can be, <br />I just hope he's got my present, <br />And it's underneath the tree. <br /> <br />(Written Dec 2013)<br /><br />John Carter Brown<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/maggie-dog-zach-rabbit-the-happy-days/
