Ollie and Gus
were sitting in the pub,
talking about starting
their own book club.
Ollie had milk,
Gus only water,
and it was he who suggested
reading Beatrix Potter.
Ollie said they should
order some grub,
and invite Peter Rabbit
to join their club.
Gus wrote the letter
and sent it with pride,
but oh, the sorrow,
Peter never replied.
They might still be waiting,
it’s a shame indeed,
that nobody told them -
rabbits can't read.

Oh my! That is so cute! And I love the little poem you wrote me. Sweet hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteOh, poor Gus and Ollie! I love the little softies and the poem, and I adore the old editions of Beatrix Potter. We visited her house in the Lake District a few years ago and some of the illustrations are based on her home and garden. xx
ReplyDeleteGus and Ollie are so cute! I was brought up on Beatrix Potter stories and remember my Granny reading them to me. My favourite was Mrs Tiggywinkle but I quite liked the naughty ones too, like Peter Rabbit and Squirrel Nutkin!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes

ReplyDeleteHello :)
ReplyDeleteOllie and Gus are so cute, and your poem is delightful. I am a great fan of Beatrix Potter, and read many of her books as a child. The Lake District is a better place for her having lived there.
All the best

I love them <3 and your little poem :) I hope they find someone to read the books for them ;-)

Oh, that is so dear. I love Beatrix Potter. Her drawings were spot on. The first time I saw an English garden, I knew how perfectly she had drawn the flowers. I had studied them so much in her books as a child, I recognized them! We have her to thank for the Lake District preservation, I think. What a marvelous woman.
ReplyDeleteSuch an adorable poem for such a cute pair.
ReplyDeleteOllie and Gus are adorable and your poem about them is so cute and creative.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this is darling! Peter Rabbit is a long time favorite of mine. I recall receiving books one year for Christmas, and the I had getting to read that tale over and over again.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for visiting!!
Hugs,
