Squirrel Nutcase

Feb 2012

James Bay Squirrels look well dressed

in grey fur coats

and off-white vests

they are fetchingly sartorial

even tho' they are arboreal

 

That high in trees they're acrobatic

there are no "if's "or "buts"

on the ground they're quite erratic

they've all mislaid their nuts.

 

Bushy-tailed, small hands on chests

standing knowing they look cute

they're still panhandling little pests-

so just ignore the swanky suit
