Fall colors and squirrel


Capturing?

From my porch
Through glowing
Orange and yellow and red
Leaves,
And morning sunlight
I gaze at
hard-working squirrel
getting ready for silent
snow time
making sure
the nest is
a safe haven
for the family
Unaware
of danger,
just minding his
own
business
Living up to
his squirrel nature,
his giant black eyes
looked back at me
as saying
“Swiftly, dear,
I don’t have the whole day”
Nature is that simple.
(Blue Crystal Eagle)
