Greetings Gaby ~ Keeper Of The Realm !

I am currently reviewing as part of the tasks set by the "Game of Thrones" . I especially visited your port to dig your most precious gems then this piece appeared. In this review, I mainly focus on the positives of your piece and I may point some Areas for Improvement if found any. Without much a do, here are the things I noticed after delving deeper into the contents:


The poem "My Rainbow Bunny" establishes a captivating scene rife with contrasting elements. The opening stanza paints a hopeful picture with a rainbow emerging after the snow, a classic symbol of new beginnings. The animals' cheerful actions of hopping and racing and the blooming flowers further emphasize this sense of renewal. However, the second stanza injects a discordant note, introducing a dark undercurrent. Mother Nature's "dry wit" hints at a hidden danger lurking beneath the surface of this seemingly idyllic scene. Father Time's act of closing his eyes suggests a known, unpleasant outcome that he chooses not to witness.

The third stanza shifts focus to the oblivious bunny, who runs through the grass with carefree abandon. The introduction of physical threats with the mention of "tripping on a stone and a shard of glass" creates a sense of unease. This foreshadows a potential danger lurking beneath the cheerful facade. The bunny's eventual stop under the rainbow, a symbol of hope and good fortune in many cultures, becomes unsettling with the line "his colored ears in the wind flopped." This final image is ambiguous. Are the ears "flopped" in a playful manner, or do they hint at injury or confusion? This ambiguity adds to the poem's suspense.

Overall, the poem excels at creating a sense of suspense. The cheerful imagery of the rainbow and flowers clashes with the ominous undercurrent introduced by Mother Nature's humor and Father Time's knowledge. The reader is left wondering about the true nature of the rainbow's magic: is it a beacon of hope, or a deceptive lure? The obliviousness of the bunny further intensifies the suspense, making us question his ultimate fate. Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem. Write on!


Best regards,
