Is It You Or Me

Maggie my friend, I'm back again
My squirrels are frozen in their den,
I must not be as you say,
Or they'd not be frozen in today.
If I shined I'd go to New York
And peddle it for more than a buck.
But I’d then have taxes to pay
And my shine would surely go away
So I took another track
To try and get off of your back
But I lost my way, for you see
 The sun was in my eyes 
And the winds kept pushing me

I’ll take a stand here and now
Michaela Payne, You’re tagged I vow.
