OctPoWriMo Day 21, Prompt: Nature’s Calling
Squirrels
Three squirrels on the deck railing
sort seeds, skip millet, milo
for sunflower. The wind seizes
their bushy tails, fluffs the whispy hairs.
Inquisitively they watch me watch them.

Very cute, and very true. Captivating, since that is exactly what happens with squirrels. Well to me anyway, on several occasions.
Thank you. I love to watch them and am happy to feed them. I know a lot of folks think they’re nuisances, but I just enjoy them so much! 🙂
We have two that live in a tree 10 feet from the house, I adore them! I couldn’t see them as a nuisance, ever, they are so sweet and innocent.
