MATERIAL SQUIRREL

MATERIAL SQUIRREL ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There once was an offbeat squirrel named *Madonna, In sequins and sparkles, she fashioned herself a prima donna. She shopped till she dropped, Buying beads and clothes, nonstop Saying “I’m a material squirrel in a material world, uh huh!” In the forest, she performed most every night, Dancing under the moon's luminescent light. She sang, “I'm a material squirrel,” Her voice loudly did unfurl. “With acorns and bling, my life on stage is bright!" Why gather just nuts?” she was heard to declare, “When diamonds and gems are priceless, and rare!” With a flick of her tail, She forged a fashionable trail, “I’m a diva squirrel with style beyond compare! Note*“Madonna Louise Ciccone an American singer, songwriter, record producer, and actress. Referred to as the "Queen of Pop", she has been recognized for her continual reinvention and versatility in music production, songwriting, and visual presentation…Her popular song, "Material Girl," is a synth-pop song by Madonna from her 1984 album Like a Virgin. The song expresses her preference for material wealth over romance and became a pop culture icon.” (Source Wikipedia.com)

Dear Sara, I have fallen in love with your 'material squirrel'. She is such an interesting character and she stays so alive in your limerick, causing a lingering chuckle on my face. Very hilariously presented.

Loved the picture and reference to Maddonna. It was artful and I liked it. Made me think there really are women like this.

Well, was never a fan. Your poetry far more entertaining than she in my opinion. With all the stuff she has done to her face, one can hardly recognize her. Bushy tailed squirrels far more appealing. Very witty, precious write. Good way to start the week. Thank you, Sara.
