The Golden Gate Squirrel Shape

Years ago after
                     hitching as a lark
                   I was dropped off at
              The Golden     Gate Park
             I  decided  to     walk for a 
             minute or         two Since I
                  had             nothing bet-                   ter   to
                                   do Now Squir-               rels  and
                             I weren't in good                stead Ever
                         since one dropped                 a nut on my
                      head So when on a               limb one sudden-
                   ly appeared It was             one of the things that
                I feared. I jumped            back and it jumped down
               It ran up to where 2 women it found. The woman
                  on the right wore a pants suit. Up inside her
                     pants leg is where he did scoot As soon as he was
                        up inside her pants, She screamed and did a
                              high stepping dance It wasn't
                                 long before the squirrel got
                                        away But I'll tell you
                                                 what it sure
                                                       made my day!

Thank you Ilene. I've always been pretty good at drawing cartoons, so that probably helps some. I wanted to use some of my own drawings with my poems, but "Soup" won't let me use stuff from my desktop, so thought this would be the next best thing. It's fun but a little aggravating at times!........80)

Thank you for commenting. I did this in about an hour. The open office version of "word" seems much more compatible with the "soup". Fun to do!! (like a puzzle)...pat
