Congrats on your win my friend. Sorry I missed writing for your last contest. Only saw I had forgotten to write my entry when it was posted as judged. Forgetful as of late ...

I feed the little buggers every day, but due to the many cats I can't stick around for the feasting. The stuffed cheeks did it for me. Love, daver

Personally I like squirrels. I remember back in junior high a teacher kind of mocked my for looking at photos of squirrels in National Wildlife - which I get being a member of the National Wildlife Federation. I like this poem a lot. I am a featured reader at the Poetry Forum in NY on the 18th of October. Do I have your permission to read one of yours along with reading my poems? Peace & Love Matthew Anish
