I sit at my window
and glance all around.
There are Woodpeckers,
Robins,& Cardinals abound.
Doves, Wrens, Jays
& Blackbirds scavenging
on the ground.
The possum family & nightime
hunters are hidden for the day.
At night they'll come out
hunting their prey.
Mr Squirrel has scurried
down the tree; knocking on
the screen to see only me.
Good morning kind sir,
I have nuts for thee
carefully placed on the
path below, the path
the squirrel chooses to go.
He gathers his nuts
for wintertime.
Runs back and forth
to his nest, storing
one nut at a time.
The lake is quiet,
the fish asleep,
The gators nestle
shallow and deep.
To my many friends
who come to visit rarely.
I may not have mentioned
you now.
Please forgive me,
for next time, I most
certainly will
somehow.
Yet another unexpected piece....didnt quite realise the 'neighbours' were the big and small creatures. Smilesz. hhmmmm..perhaps, your rhyming scheme can be a little more obvious , if u want it that way. But then again, IF you deliberately want it this way, it's ok too. ;) Thanxs for the invitation, Linda.
