Weasel

WEASEL

Tiny little weasel,
Sneaking `round the house,
Searching for a midnight snack,
A chick, a kit or mouse.

Crafty little rascal,
Scurries here and there,
Must find enough to feed the brood,
A bird, a pup or hare.

Nocturnal little scavenger,
Omnivorous opportunist,
Relentless once he spots his prey,
A formidable impugnist.

Cute little weasel,
Can be really sweet,
Cut the little guy some slack,
We all have got to eat.

                                   Judy Ball

I agree with you, we get coyotes, and foxes, raccoons and skunks around here and we live int the city. but there is this creek that flows down from the mountains that is why. this was a great piece of work. thank you for commenting on Warm Breezes and for your support of my poetry.
