THE HARE

 

This is one of the illustrations & poems in my new THREE HARES book, this poem is called THE HARE
                         Throughout time your features
                          Have been carved and painted
                            Worshipped and protected
                               Adorned and adored
                              Steeped in mythology
                            Beguiling magical Lepus
                         Symbol of rebirth and eternity
                         Yet not blessed with longevity
                               But loved by so many
                              In images immortalised
                             In imagination idealised
                              A touchstone, a healer
                               An enigma, a stealer
                                    Of our hearts
You can see the book in my Three Hares Gallery in Chagford or on my website www.devonsnatureinart.com
