For a Rainy Day

The importance of saving your nuts!

                                                     

If you're expecting real poetry, this ain't it!

I'm Silicone the Squirrel, and I'm planning ahead,

for future days to ensure that I'm fed.

 

I'm moving my nuts to a place more secure,

for a future rainy day when they disappear.

 

Now, you may laugh at my mouth full of nuts,

well, I'll have the last laugh, no if, and, or buts.

 

While you'll stay just a skinny-a*s rodent,

I planned ahead--yes, quite brilliant!

 

Stored in a warm, dry place, my nuts won't go bad

They'll be the tastiest nuts I've ever had.

 

While I'm savoring the taste, you'll be going down,

Until you'll be about the skinniest squirrel around.

 

You're always in a hurry, it's 'now, now, now!'

You'll wish you planned ahead, somehow.

 

Don't try touching my nuts, don't you dare,

cause these babies, I'll never share!

Very astute and far-thinking squirrel.

Thanks Marie, you know what they say, if you're a squirrel, planning is everything," Well, SOMEBODY says it, anyway!
