Squirrels
Spunky squirrels gather up nuts,
swiftly stashing them out of view.
In a hurry to stuff their guts,
spunky squirrels gather up nuts.
With bulging cheeks and furry butts,
you love to see them passing through.
Spunky squirrels gather up nuts,
stashing them safely out of view.
You love to see them passing through,
scampering around the garden.
And though they'll dig a hole or two,
you love to see them passing through.
Storing nuts, they'll bury a few;
before the ground starts to harden.
You love to see them passing through,
scampering around the garden.
So, if you have time in your day,
Quietly, spy on them at play.
Unafraid; they won't run away:
Instead, they tend to be quite bold.
Remember to watch, and not hold,
Rabies is something you should fear:
Enjoy them from afar, not near.
Loping along from tree to tree;
Scurrying free, for all to see.
