Two Squirrels In Love

Two Squirrels in Love Alas! There there are at the break of day With the new sun warming their curly tails. There they are dancing from tree top to tree top Like Fred Estare and Ginger Rogers. Breaking in the new day with a new dance As their hearts swell with sheer delight. Two squirrels in love Sharing their paradise of all paradises. A quaint little park at the end of the street A place where lovers meet. A place where hearts connect for the very first time. But it’s all theirs! The dance floor for these two squirrels in love- It’s all theirs! Dancing on the branches of the elm trees above A paradise for two. Or shall we say three? For next spring there shall be three! Father squirrel, mother squirrel, and little squirrel chasing each other on the branches of the tallest elm trees. Gwendolen Rix 6-6-14
