first snow squirrel – December 4

Posted on December 4, 2013 by landl30

12.4

first snow squirrel

digs through to the

leaves and twigs

beneath.

half body deep into

the drifts, catamaran

tail balancing, she

finds old seeds

locked in, tucked away

for just such time, her

401K of nature’s

harvest.
