High Noon At Park Bench

squirrels quarrelling
            a large scurry  going nuts 
              shells land everywhere

It ain’t shells you need to worry about, David. When squirrels quarrel, it’s ear muffs you need. Ah, unless you’re under the tree of course. Okay… point taken ;-). I struggle with these haiku thingies… clearly, you don’t.

Thank you so much Heidi, strangely enough that last line came first the rest followed in turn, hope you are keeping well, cheers David
