- I am a little rabbit, hrum - hrum,

- Hrum - hrum!

-Happy New Year, dear rabbit!

oh but I would hold your

sleep flushed heads and

sweaty hair,

down on my ample thighs

and shield your eyes from the bad th...

Kids In Buckets: The School Run.

Splutter, splatter drips the rain

Down the gutter and window pane –

The journey to school will be so slow,

The traffic will just grow and grow!
