We have one squirrel
That when no cats are around
Loves to come down
Out of the tree in our back yard
And steal the stray cats food

We have on in our pine tree
That when it is in a bad mood
Drops pieces of pine cone
On your head

We even have one that lives
In the wall of our trailer
But I have not heard
It chewing as of late
I hope a cat
Didn't have squirrel as
Its meat

At a lake we used to go to
The squirrels were so tame
Thay ate straight from your hands
I loved that

On TV you see
How people save a squirrel
From certain death
And make them their pets

Squirrels can tell many tales
Even if all they do is sqeak

Cold hands means a warm heart

This is cute, Julie...
We have so many squirrels on our livingroom deck that I think that they must think they own it and that they are looking at us as if we are safe because we are inside a cage of windows

(giggles in delight) Oh Julie, this is soooooo cute, I love squirrels and I truly believe all of Nature's creations have a special quality, a story and spirit to share and something in common with everything in harmonic niche, I love this, this is adorable, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Julie, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Don't believe a word of them, Julie.
We're rats of the forest.

a simple 'tail'
but amusing and one familiar to all
A poem to uh...
squirrel away in archives.  *s*
(and 'knot' holed away forgotten somewhere)
