The Squirrel story/poem

By: Amanda Diamond

Look at the squirrel

He’s so fuzzy and cute
Big eyes, fluffy tail
And can climb to boot

His ways are so funny

He’s tiny and sweet
And soon he’ll find a nut
So his family can eat

He has a little wife,

Who goes by Emma Jane
And they live in the oak tree
On Apple Pie lane

The squirrels have 3 kids

Tommy, Joan, and Lee
And they eat off a mushroom table
While drinking iced tea

They chatter all day

And scamper at night
They rub in the roads
And give drivers a fright

I love the squirrels

Because they are so cute
Why is my Dad holding that gun?
Oh no! Don’t shoot

Now the squirrels are dead

And I am so sad
And…
Oh my God! Look at that kitty!
