Paul and crew are broadly smiling
All of this the rabbit's filing
Facebook.. not his cup of tea?
Watching birdie's in our tree!
"Like to see a Blackbird eating
All the Gulls he is defeating!"
Clever rabbit, secret place
Watch the smile upon his face! (Smirk?)
In the cafe, he's observing
Tories there, and soon he's swerving! (Not daft!)
"Tony Benn a hero, see!"
Paul, of course, laughs: "He! He! He!"
Going home, with Rufus talking
Partial to some "garden walking"
Keeping watch: "Please, all behave!"
Rabbit really needs a shave?

Rather hear the birdies sing?
Litter always, makes me "twitter"
Lots of bins, 'have feelings bitter!
"Pick your daily scratch cards up!"
Fat guy from a can does sup!
Close my mouth, abuse not liking

Time to have a little drink?
Coffee with some friends, I think?
Working hard, they're railings painting
Older friends are almost fainting!

Buddha is by "Heaven" fed
Meanwhile plane is "nation" viewing
Thoughts of fossil-fuels eschewing?
'Visit peasants in the North
