My Friends Are These Squirrels

I really often love to cross country
here in Scotland, that's not very far
Dunfermline is a place I'm fond of
home of Carnegie, it's brightest star

Carnegie gave the town a park
it's so large, lovely and green
full of birds of many different types
but there was a special one I seen

These were lovely grey squirrels
so often loved to have a walk
round this beautiful green park
looked as if they wanted to talk

They acted as if they knew you
looking for a feed of a nut or two
trees were their favourite climb
amazing watching them so in time

Such a delight watching them
scampering around all over the place
this is nature at its most appealing
seeing all its creatures at their pace
