Untitled




To catch a thief
tell the eyes not to shy
on a clawing squirrel
hiding a nut in the dirt.

Beneath the red berries
bending the bamboo twigs
the unabashed critter
tamed my suspicions.

  2. ___A joy to watch... in their daily habit. Gray Squirrels, Red Squirrels and Chipmunks... and at night, the Flying Squirrels. Everything they see belongs to them, this sole reasoning... a birth tenet of the wild.
    ___Very fine verse, here, BJE! _m
