Speaking a few words

The sidewalk ahead was uneven.

Rain had begun to fall.

I saw four bunnies in the clover.

Two were near the street

and two were farther up by the driveway.

Suddenly, one bunny hopped up and over the other one

and then they both hopped off through a hedge.

Then the two bunnies waiting by the driveway  

followed the first two bunnies away.

And then, so very quickly, I saw no bunnies at all.

I stood alone.

Rain had begun to fall.

The sidewalk ahead was uneven.

If I speak of questions of consequence

and inconsequence,

where should I begin

and where should I end?

I saw four bunnies in the clover

and suddenly there were none.
