And Nobody Gets Hurt

As a squirrel said to a boy eating peanuts “Put those down and nobody gets hurt!” Pretty damn bold of this furry tailed creature This “too big for his britches” wee squirt Sure needs to be taught a lesson or two He must realize he could be easily squished One foot down on his furry wee body Lights out, he'll no longer exist Don't write me letters all you animal lovers They just get back what they deserve He's NOT an animal, he's much too small So back off, y'all got a nerve “Put those down and nobody gets hurt!” These guys sure got some attitude As kids, we'd SHOOT them with B-B guns “Back off and nobody get screwed” © Jack Ellison 2015

You plug em, we feed them. So the world has some balance, after all. But yours probably don't cross the snow, in a blizzard, just to get you... your mail! Yep, Dragon taught them to do it, or he wouldn't warm up their water or give them feed. He's even taught them to militarize, when the Hawks come around! The hawks aren't allowed the luxury to visit, to mess with our birds! And those sling slots he handed out have saved, many a cute widdle bird! Yep! You need a Dragon to help you in your wars!

Yeah! I know Acorn Falls is a bit different, than every where else. But if you don't try... you'll never know... if I was right!...LOL

I can relate to the humor in this one, Jack! We have a hummingbird who made a nest in our patio, and she boldly "attacks" us when we get near her :) Well written!
