The Visitors

Every night 
   I wait to see,
Who might come
  to visit me.
And right on time
  the fox I see,
Then another
  wait, there's three.
And when they're gone
  the oppossum's here,
Until he sees
   the skunk appear.
And with the night
  about to end,
Coyotes slip. 
  around the bend.
Now every night
  I wait to see,
Who might come
  to visit me.
