Acorns and Squirrels
Acorns Falling Down By Mary J Williams © I am sitting in my chair My computer in front of me I keep hearing things Don’t know what it could be Ah, I think I figured it out The acorns falling from above The branches of the tree Over the roof, kind of Crack, there lands another Hitting the roof above me Crack, crack, crack Many acorns, way more than three I have so many acorns Laying in the up-hill driveway Put my car in 4-wheel drive Hope I can get out, I pray Instead of eating my birdseed The squirrels should get busy Eating all the acorns And stashing them in a tizzy Then they would have food For the snowy winter ahead The Persimmon seeds say shovel And that’s something I will dread Acorns falling down upon my head No, not really just the roof up there Please little squirrels do your thing And I won’t bother you, I swear!
