Notes About The Poem

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

Tania, I have a friend who goes out every day and feeds local squirrels. I'm going to send this to him shortly. They are fun to watch. He has them coming to him for peanuts and coming to his window and coming just far enough inside to retrieve some food. He's got some remarkable videos.
