The Hare & The Minotaur Part 1 (the lovers)


There once was a hare,
Who thought she was grand.
The most beautiful creature,
In all of the land.

She was shallow and vein,
She thought she was mighty,
But whilst out one day,
She met Aphrodite.

The little hares head,
With love was soon full.
As  Aphrodite made her,
Fall in love with a bull.

The bull it was said,
Was a great Minotaur.
Half bull, and half man,
The fiercest of all.

The hare and the Minotaur,
They decided to wed.
And after their wedding,
Retired to their bed.

But as they were sleeping,
In their bed they had made.
Theseus crept  in,
And the Minotaur slayed.
