Gods Little Forest Creatures

(10/01/11) All that she knew was that it was a snowy day And she was in a horse pulled sleigh The blanket was covering her From her knees to her feet. The thermo of hot chocolate was such a treat. The frozen lake, the snow covered trees Was truly a sight to be seen. the birds high up in the trees Whistling so cheerfully Singing songs of summers past And how the winter came so fast. The ground hog not wanting to come out He knew well what winter was about. The ground was covered in a blanket of white All roads and paths were out of sight. That did not stop this horse pulled sleigh He had gone thru this many a day. He had a covered barn that awaited him That was the reason he had a grin. The animals were frantically searching for food The possums, the raccoons, the rabbits And The squirrels too. With one purpose in mind And that was to stay alive. As she got to where they were gathered She pulled out from under her blanket A five pound bag of peanuts and seed for her to feed - these poor Little creatures who always came around When there was no food to be found. She was the snow white of this land Always there to give a hand. So when you see a squirrel stop and stand on its hind legs, it’s to see if it is their snow white Who helped them on this cold winter night.

Such satisfaction to find the dear solution in this verse. I too feel that way about the little creatures.
