This came to me when I sawthe groundhog, who I named Sir Seth of Spindale, came out to see us a couple of days ago. I took a picture but am not savvy enough to put it with the poem; sorry!

Sir Seth of Spindale

I am Sir Seth of Spindale
You may have seen me in the news
I am not political 
Though I lean right with my views

Underneath the storage building,
Is my home, out in the yard,
Of the house, of one, who dubbed me
And professes he's a bard

He thinks he is the royal king
And lives there with his queen
I think, I'm the only groundhog,
That he has ever seen

Why else would he be-knight me
Post my picture on the net?
Most likely, for my mail-in vote,
He's a Democrat, I'll bet.
