Dear Gray Squirrel,
Tell me, what are you looking for!
The bird food you do deplete,
Yet you keep passing by my door,
Is your search never complete?
Your manners I do deplore!
Always looking for a tasty treat!
You’ve had that, yet look for more!
Your greed knows no defeat!
Rhyme
This poem was inspired by the gray squirrel that lives in a tree in my backyard who seems to never get full nor tired. He is always eating or searching. He is cute but can really be a pest at times! 😊
The Sprouts of Spring, what joy they bring!

Saw a Robin today
Come to chase winter away
Flying in to help celebrate
January’s final day

Whispering
In the trees
Nipping at my nose
Dancing with the leaves
Acrostic
Life seemed mediocre
As it sometimes can be
I didn’t sit and mope
But made hum drums flee
Rose up, did what i could
Actively fought mediocrity
Now happily I can say
There’s no more nonentity
Ode-Irregular
Trinet Poem
The Angel of Happiness came
Whirling and twirling, and she
Sent fear and sorrow to hide.
Singing with heart full of joy,
Praising the Lord God above,
Dancing with arms open wide,
She showed me how to live,
In peace and sweet harmony,
At morning and eventide.
Ekphrastic
Could it be that you
At times need to
Listen and learn, see and seek?
Two eyes, two ears can,
Relay thoughts better than,
One mouth can often speak.

A faint rainbow in the sky.
Is a dove above?
Coincidence?
