Nutty Christmas

I'm preparing for Christmas
Nuts have all be found
Pecans, hazels, almonds
No longer underground

I'm ready to deliver
To squirrel boys and girls
Nuts of every colour
Just like your Santa Claus

I've received all the letters
Checked they've all been good
On Christmas eve night
Nuts will be their food

Please don't spread my secret
The badgers do not know
It's only you and squirrels
Give presents to and fro

This piece of poetry is written in response to Jenny Matlocks Saturday Centus prompt which is the photo and the requirements to write in the first person - squirrel.  I hope you like it. Happy Christmas

A sweet little story.

I like that it is not the squirrel's perceptive which makes it a sweeter story.

have a great day.
