Half-Eared Harold Who Loves to Fly

From time to time again, Harold's airplane breaks. But I always fix it so he can go flying again.

 

 

Yes, Harold loves to fly. In fact, I don't think he's ever left the cockpit. Even when his airplane is broken, he sits there in anticipation of when he can take off once more.

    Yes, Harold is a special rabbit. I've always joked that he only listens half the time; though he does only have one ear when it comes to conversation. I'd imagine his head is always somewhere in the clouds, flying loops and barreling off somewhere into some new horizon.

My sister bought Harold at some store or other so he could grace my shelf with his ever-flying presence, him being the very picture of wanderlust cast into fragile glass.

    And that is why, alas, (while I can fix his airplane) I cannot fix his missing ear. It's the way I got him. But the only voice a rabbit like Harold really wants to listen to is that of the wind.

   I've always meant to draw Harold, and now I have him in my sketchbook as well as on my shelf. Soon, if I find the time, I'll fix his airplane again, so that he can go off and break it once more.
