Sharing
Rabbit and Squirrel were scrambling.
It is Fall, a time to do things.
Get Winter preparations started.
Defeat what cold weather brings.
Around and then, around again.
Searching for food to store.
Build a shelter, dig a hole.
That they didn’t need before.
A rabbit hole to hibernate.
With Winter drawing near.
A nest made of branches and leaves.
Before they disappear.
Squirrels are the best at gathering acorns.
But can’t remember where they’re hidden.
Then Squirrel had a great idea.
Do something that’s forbidden.
That squirrel thought “I will show Rabbit!”
My secret hiding places.
Rabbit will tell me what,
My remembering, time erases.
We can share food and warm places.
When we need them until Spring.
Agreement made, start the parade!
Sharing, that’s the thing!
