     Always a Rabbit on cue in that Hat: / Black, brown, white, mixed colors – eveready / For centuries. Then, the command was lost, / The baton broken, and deeper reachings / Found nothing there. Scarves stopped all together. / Long it made us glad with easy magic. / A global museum wonder piece, now. / Alas, for many a quite rabbitless, / Scarveless remnant of past conjurations.
