A Furl of Tails and Toast

Squirrels like toasted treats.
It makes them quite happy.
You won't hear them complain.
Just munching right away.

          With twirls!
          Swirls too!
          Those girls!
          Pearls true.
          Tails a furl.

Duke Beaufort Date: 9/22/2025 4:35:00 AM Danny, they are fun to watch, and hopefully stay outside the house!! You write a lot. I'm impressed by that since it's not what I do at all. It's a real talent you have. Quality and quantity. Smiles! Login to Reply Danny Derden Date: 9/22/2025 2:08:00 PM I think sometimes I stretch it a bit much...but I have fun doing it and if it makes someone laugh or smile or think or perhaps more importantly REthink it is well worth my time.
