Here I sit High in this old scraggly tree I watch the chipmunk below me Scampering to and fro With no particular place to go Stopping once in awhile to chatter Then going thru the leaves with such a clatter Then he is gone, no where to be found Then I see the shadow over me Oh…. woe is me For I am flying thru the air With the greatest of ease For a falcon has gotten me |

I'm going to date myself but I just can't help it! "With no particular place to go" I loved this line, reminded me of Chuck Berry! "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey."" Laurie Lee Kathleen |
