New Year's Day With Jack O' Hare

Jack O' Hare perked up his big ears
All the noisy fireworks were gone
peace at last had come with dawn
all the partygoers were now home in their beds
with ice packs atop their throbbing heads.

And so 2011 had begun
this earth passing
yet another full course around the sun.

His friend Dracul had told him,
2011 is the Year of the Rabbit.

Jack grinned,
"The Year of the Rabbit?".

It was going to be a very good year.
