the bunny trail

the tooth fairy
never
came with a dollar
for our
lost teeth,
nor did the easter
bunny
with a basket of eggs
hop on down our
bunny trail.
or santa
down the chimney
with a bag
of toys.
we left him pie, what gives?
no wish came true
from
the coins
dropped into the well.
the rabbit's foot,
rubbed bare got
nothing.
no shooting star
delivered
a heartfelt plea.
it was all a bunch
of junk
we realized
early on, but wished
it wasn't so.
