Such squirrels! Shiny eyes
And bushy tails, darting
Russet red glistening coats
***************************
Governance where? There’s barges
The Lady of Shallot
And mossy moats
**************************
Counting the golden days of Spring
Summer and Autumn still to come
The Miser gloats
*****************************
Badgers and otters find mention
Hedgehogs and hare, but never
The skunks and stoats
