R Ronald the Royal Rabbit
Ronald the royal Rabbit was a round rotund rabbit from eating radishes and rhubarb
You
are so very round, said the robin sitting in a rosebush.
As
round as Round can be said Ronald the Royal Rabbit
Then
a rook said you are so very very round, as it sat in a rowan tree
You
are right, As round as Round can be said Ronald
the Royal Rabbit.
Then
a rattlesnake said you are very
very very round, as he rested in
the rocks
You
are also right, As round as Round as round
can be said Ronald the Royal Rabbit.
Then
the kings cook came out and chopped off Ronald
the royal Rabbit’s head
And
as the king ate his dinner that evening he said
What
a lovely round rabbit this is
And
Ronald the royal Rabbit looking down from Rabbit heaven said
This
story is rubbish . . . . . . . I demand a rewrite.

Wonderful as always. excellent R post,
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week-end.
Yvonne,.
Many thanks it has been a beautiful sunny day here today so I have been outside working in the garden.
DeleteHahaha this made me laugh! The ending! Poor Ronald the Royal Rabbit.
ReplyDeleteDeecoded
It is good that it made you laugh, but it was a little sad for Ronald
DeleteWith so many rounds, I became curious as to the radius of the round rabbit royal Ronal d.
ReplyDeleteQuestion: Do you know why they caLL it decapitation?
Answer: Cause you can't wear a cap anymore.
Rabbits have problems with caps due to large ears so in a rabbits case it might be deearitation.
DeleteI think practicaLLy aLL the times I have seen rabbits with hats they have holes for the ears to poke up through, so that might have a stabilizing effect, especiaLLy in windy climates. But Google seems to be useless, they show alot of rabbits sitting in hats when I try to get some photos. I am off to the diner for some coffee ...
DeleteEnjoy your coffee Mr ESB, and yes you are right about the hats and rabbits. In fact it means that they may be designed better than humans to wear hats in windy climates.
DeleteHahahaha! Little man is still chuckling in his room at that ending, as am I.
ReplyDeleteGreat story, with the added bonus of having one of my favourite songs at the end. Wonderful. :)
Ah yes it is a good song and I did think Master Lil man would be amused by the end. I don't think anyone dies after today, although a few critters get squashed and a rodent is turned into a vampire and a prince gets rather annoyed with a princess and leaves her to her fate with a zombie
DeleteHe's so very ROUND! haha
ReplyDeleteYay rhubarb! I looove rhubarb. Need to plant some in the backyard!
Congrats on finishing week 3!

I do not like Rhubarb as it has been shown that you are more likely to be eaten by a king if you eat a lot of Rhubarb. Those that eat no Rhubarb are never eaten by kings.
DeleteThanks for calling by it is always nice to meet a minion, I have a friend who is hoping to take over the world with the help of minions (I know its a big ask)
Poor Ronald, I don't blame him for wanting a rewrite!
ReplyDeleteIndeed, but he will be OK in rabbit Heaven there is lots of grass and dandilions
