Autumn's Dance

three-fer

By Mother CombsPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Squirrels, with boundless energy,

Leap and scamper through autumn's leaves.

Gathering nature's bountiful offerings,

They prepare for winter's sleep.

In cozy nests, they find repose,

Dreaming of Spring's embrace.

A joyful reminder of Life's abundance,

In every season, in every space.

S - Scampering through the forest canopy

D - Dancing in Autumn’s gentle breeze

A - Acorns and nuts, their treasure trove

N - Nestled away for a winter’s rest

C - Cozy dens, a sanctuary of love

E - Embracing slumber’s sweet behest

Hyper

Constantly moving

Fluffy little critters

With extremely strong jaws

Used for cracking walnuts found

Long tails waving here or there

Little noses all a-twitter sniffing the air

Quickly scurrying up the trees to their nests

To play hide and seek with all the rest

Chittering and chattering, raiding the bird feeders looking for seeds
