Mister White Rabbit

Jules Alder's character sketch for iambatgirl's Mister White Rabbit drawing inspired a silly rhyme. :)

Mister White rabbit
Made sullen through habit
A timely defeatist
And latelife atheist
He plunders along
With a stern expression
Nihilistic, this bunny
Finds nothing is funny
And mostly, he mopes
Although deep down, there’s hope!
Tiny light through that tunnel
The mouth of the funnel
Holds speckles of promise
The return of Alice
And maybe a mate
If she’d stand still and wait
He could ask for a date
Before it’s too late
And this bunny belle settles
On gifted rose petals
From more likely charmers
Not cursed by bad karma
