I love the final two lines of the poem - the hare folding the earth beneath her feet exactly captures the way they look when they run.

There is nothing more magical than a hare, that fleetness and confidence in its own fleetness to escape. Beautiful images.

I am so glad someone restacked this so I might find it. Absolutely beautiful, I felt all the right shivers. The connection and the curiosity. Thank you for such great writing on Samhain 🍂

This is a beautiful poem Wendy and I could feel it in my body as I read it over and over. I have just finished a wonderful book ‘ Raising Hare’ by Chloe Dalton and have become very intrigued by these beautiful peaceful animals. Your poem has set me on a path of finding out more about witches and hares.
