As some of you may remember I developed quite a passion for the rabbits of Watership Down about a year ago. Since then rabbits have been a recurring theme for me. For example:
I was inspired to make my blog theme a rabbit despite all my years as a passionate cat and monkey fan, and general intent to not be too cutesie (which I have likely failed by going with the bunny theme).
I gave birth to a rabbit on the Chinese calendar.
About 90% of the gifts that my year-of-the-rabbit child has received have rabbits on them despite her mother's love of monkeys.
I keep seeing bunnies in the wild... including a little rabbit that now lives next to my mother-in-law's mobile home in the desert that was out and about almost every time we went for a walk.
It sure seems like M's talisman is the rabbit. Or maybe it's just because it's almost easter...
Rabbits are such lovely fertility symbol...I just had this wonderful vision of you reading Watership Down to M one day. Happy Easter, InB!

Watership Down is great. I also love having a year-of-the-rabbit baby-- I sometimes call her my little bunny. :)
ReplyDeleteLike Mad Hatter, I love the symbolism here. Happy Easter ... and eat the ears first. :)
