My Little Squirrel.
I have a little squirrel living in my big oak tree.
It must be two years since he moved in next to me.
He isn't a noisy squirrel, nor even is he shy.
I feed him on fruit and nuts and sometimes
bread that's dry.
He'll sometimes come to join me
when I sit out on a mat.
While he's busy preening himself
I have a little chat.
When I call my little squirrel
he comes to hear what I have to say.
That was until dad chopped the tree down.
Now my little squirrel's run away.
