Squirrel

Loves,


I saw a dead squirrel when I was walking home yesterday. It wasn't roadkill, just quiet dead with shut up eyes and a limp neck. Today I walked the same path and it was gone from the thicket. I say Squirrel was sleeping.


And I say "squirrel" is a difficult word to spell.


I remember Alice in fourth grade. She lost the spelling bee to "squirrel."


Thanks for reading,
Nick

  1. Err you're very optimistic Nick. I think it's more likely that said squirrel was carried off by a wild dog/cat or someone just dumped it in the trash. Maybe I'm too cynical. Squirrels don't make a habit of sleeping on the ground do they? Either way, very funny post :)

  2. Hahahaha, I think it's rather melancholy.
