Little Squirrelly

Frantic squirrel
Upon new fallen snow
My thoughts of you,
Scurrying to go,

I see you,
Squirrel so small
Looking for what,
Food to go,

No fast foods
In your world,
Ground covered cold
Your toes are curled.

Today you run.
You are free.
Tonight I sit
Wondering of thee,

Frantic I am
No squirrel to be
For me, my life
Is life a scam?

Only yesterday I was sitting in the pensive mood looking at the backyard covered with snow, I thought squirrel is the only animal seen in this season, cecil
