Premium Member Nutty Squirrel

He stops
   Then hops

	On sill
	   His thrill
 
To peek
   And seek

	Highjack
	   A snack

Eyes flare
   With glare

	Embrace
	   My face

To hand
   A grand

	Cool treat
	   To eat

Give bread
   Instead

        Not fit
           Drops it!

Seems mad
   So bad

        Bites thumb!
           I'm glum!

I sway
   Give way

        Throw nuts
           He gluts!

Spoiled brat!
   Now scat!

The Dot

Im a dot,
A small black powerful dot,
I can spoil a celebrity autograph 
I make void a bank cheque signature
I can spoil a sentence, a tiny story:
“A man walked along the. road”
With my friends, we make something mysterious:
“then the door closed………………….”
I highjack a comma
;
I meet up with another dot
:
I question myself with a scimitar shape
?
We dots, team up with our friends, the dashes to make the well known Morse code
