Squirrels
Spunky squirrels gather up nuts,
stashing them safely out of view.
In no hurry to stuff their guts,
spunky squirrels gather up nuts.
With bulging cheeks and furry butts,
you love watching them passing through.
Spunky squirrels gather up nuts,
stashing them safely out of view.
You love watching them passing through,
scampering around your garden.
And though they'll dig a hole or two,
you love watching them passing through.
Storing nuts, they'll bury a few
before the ground starts to harden.
You love watching them passing through,
scampering around your garden.
So if you have time in your day,
Quietly spy on them at play.
Unafraid, they won't run away,
Instead, they tend to be quite bold.
Remember to watch, but not hold,
Rabies is something you should fear.
Enjoy them from afar, not near,
Loping along from tree to tree
Scurrying free for all to see.
