Snowflake

He appeared in our backyard one day with fur white as snow An albino squirrel, a beautiful and rare sighting wherever he may go He spends his days sleeping and then out frolicking for bird seed and we enjoy his comedic antics as he steals and runs away with greed He is timid and will chatter away and sputter about if you get too near Then he runs and hops along the fence and quickly disappears Snowflake became his name once we saw him jump high into the air And gracefully landed on the tree branch, his tail a white puff of flair We know he’s fairly young and lives close by in his squirrel home As his family watches and chirps loudly when he goes out alone We cherish him and know he’s a rare gift and a such a blessing And he makes our days fun as watching him appear is refreshing
