Our Toerag, never one to be considered much a winner
Decided on Easter he would have a rabbit there for dinner
So he went to the pet store, found a fluffy little hare
Then took it home and placed the tiny creature in a chair.
"My momma always told me that it was the proper way
To have the best time anyone could have on Easter Day
By having a rabbit for dinner- she said that way was the best
And, though I've never done it,time to put it to the test.
So he fed the rabbit collard greens and turnip greens and beets,
Some lettuce and some cabbage and some sliced-up luncheon meats,
Hard-boiled eggs with hollandaise,some chicken batter-fried,
Some swedish meatballs special made with almonds cooked inside.
He gave the creature oysters Rockefeller and some clams,
Large bowls of mashed potatoes and a plate of candied yams
And, while the rabbit stuffed himself, Toe brought out more delights
And smiled with glee as bunny gulped all down in little bites.
Then came dessert - a pumpkin pie with whipped cream piled up high,
French pastries that were so delicious they could make one cry,
Large bowls of ice cream, sprinkles and some cherries piled on top,
A plate of custard...culinary ecstacy non-stop!
For three full hours he fed the creature everything in sight
And said,"I feel great! It seems that momma had been right!"
He then picked up his new-found friend and carried him away.
How wonderful that Toerag had a special Easter Day!
