I gazed at the portfolio of attributes
given the year of the Rabbit
tried to squeeze them into my life
and wondered if perhaps mine were more
written in between the lines.
Financially lucky? Well I do have a job.
Excellent taste? Do my sweats from Walmart count as fashion?
Articulate and talented, yes I can accept those.
Ambitious? Well as long as I don't have to work to hard.
Virtuous to me is vague, more depended upon perception
for inside aren't there shadows in us all?
Will agree, don't care for gambling, but even when I did I never win,
think my own year on the Zodiac needs some serious rewrite
or a whole lot of creative interpretation along with an extra blessed "foot"
to make all the fantastic details true that are claimed for this Bunny Sign.

Year of the Rabbit
1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011
People born in the Year of the Rabbit are articulate, talented, and ambitious. They are virtuous, reserved, and have excellent taste. Rabbit people are admired, trusted, and are often financially lucky. They are fond of gossip but are tactful and generally kind. Rabbit people seldom lose their temper. They are clever at business and being conscientious, never back out of a contract. They would make good gamblers for they have the uncanny gift of choosing the right thing. However, they seldom gamble, as they are conservative and wise. They are most compatible with those born in the years of the Sheep, Pig, and Dog.
