.
I was sad one day and went for a walk;
I sat in a field.
.
A rabbit noticed my condition and
came near.
.
It often does not take more than that to help at times -
.
to just be close to creatures who
are so full of knowing,
so full of love
that they don't
- chat,
.
they just gaze with
their
marvelous understanding.
.
