Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen Poet Pantoum

Squirrels Scamper

As they scamper through the sunlit tree,
Bouncing on the branches without care.  
Critter-chatter joins the birds mid-air. 
Joys of nature fill their hearts with cheer. 

Bouncing on the branches without care.  
Squirrels run to eat grapes from the top.  
Joys of nature fill their hearts with cheer. 
The bounty in the canopy thrives.

Squirrels run to eat grapes from the top. 
Critter-chatter joins the birds mid-air.
The bounty in the canopy thrives. 
As they scamper through the sunlit tree.
