A
Lark In The Park!
So why
chase a Squirrel? There's a danger you know,
You
can't just chase one, for the craving will grow.
There's
no doubt they're addictive, wherein lies the danger,
But
you have to watch out, don’t get caught by the Ranger.
So
how about another? Would I really dare?
They're
really quite tricky to chase, I do swear.
With
quiet paws, softly into the woods I tread,
And then
it’s off at top speed for a chase, enough said.
If
only I could catch one and put in on a plate,
I’d
have it for supper and that would be great.
Between
two pieces of bread all fresh and crusty,
But
alas they get away I must be getting rusty.
How
I suffer, but what do you care?
You
could at least help there is plenty spare.
So
why not come and join me there is plenty of room,
And together
we can go hunting and spell the squirrels doom.
So
each day to the park I go with squirrels on my mind,
What
a hard life I have with this daily grind.
Each
one is so special, I remember each chase so well,
I
think I’ll put my nose down and see what I can smell.
So why
chase a Squirrel? There's a danger you know,
You
can't just chase one, for the craving will grow.
There's
no doubt they're addictive, wherein lies the danger,
But
to stop chasing them, I can think would be stranger.

We think we'd like to chase a squirrel. Alas, we don't have any, so we have to be content with cats, lizards and crows...sometimes other birds we aren't picky.
ReplyDeleteYou've done your Park Bingo card in style.

Yeah - you got your bingo - well done and we bet you had great fun finding everything.
ReplyDeleteBingo! You have a nice park, I would like to chase squirrels there with you... and for the supper, we should use another package this fabulous bread sauce I've got from you for my Britmas. And we should have a bottle (or more) of a 1867's Domaine de Bark de la Pupignon... Have a fabulous wednesday!
ReplyDeleteYour tree rat looks better than the tree rats over here. At least, yours has bigger, fluffier tail and fatter.
ReplyDeleteGreat poem Molly. Sadly, I don't have many squirrels here (not really, I have squirrel phobia ;). I see one every now and then in the nearby neighborhood.
ReplyDeletesuch a cute poem. my dogs haven't caught a squirrel in a couple of years now. i think they're getting old and lazy.
ReplyDeleteSniff Whine Whimper SNIFFFFFFf OH Molly that Beautiful Poem has us Crying BUCKETS of TEARS.... Anybuddy have an (Sniff)extra Snot Rag we could borrow.
ReplyDeleteYou are a super poet Molly.
PeeS... THANKs fur putting up the word about Blogville's efforts to help the Dogs and Cats of Moore, Oklahome. Getting the word out about this is worth its weight in gold. THANKS...
What a wonderful poem! Did you get that tree rat??? Do you have BINGO yet?
ReplyDeleteElyse and Riley
Oh Molly, you have such a way with words! So happy to see Pip with you at the park. Do the squirrels run from Pip. They ignore me - think they know I can't chase them anymore.
ReplyDeleteYour pal, Pip
Excellent poem Molly, that sums up all our feelings for the little blighters!
ReplyDeleteMum says we are too stupid to chase squirrels but we disagree - we are just too lazy.
Dip Bridge and Elliot x
Woohoo, Bingo! Congratulations! Love the poem. I think it sums up many dogs' feelings and experiences about chasing squirrels.
ReplyDeleteI love the poem. But I may have to write my own. I find that Honey only chases squirrels on the street, never in the park and never in our backyard.
ReplyDeleteHave fun barking in the park.
We don't have many squirrels around our yard, so we would be very happy to come join you in the hunt!
ReplyDeleteWoos - Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning
Oh we loved your poem it brought tears to our eyes....

ReplyDeleteWonderful poem about our MOST favorite activity! Stanzie caught a squirrel once, but it was already hurt and running slow.
We wish they were all slow...
Wyatt and Stanzie
Nice park & poem! Love the first pic, puppy Molly & the Maj are adorable. :)
ReplyDeleteYour mission has been completed, it appears. Hope you enjoyed your day in the park. I have a badge on my blog to help Moore.
ReplyDeleteYou never cease to amaze me! Great poem! Gosh, that would take me like 10 million years to come up with! I also wanted to say a big thanks for your sweet words about Carly - I appreciated it a lot! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteLove the poem and congrats on your Bingo!
ReplyDeleteYou're so clever with your poem buddy! I have a feeling ticking off the squirrel on your list was the top priority?! :)
ReplyDeleteWags to all
Your pal Snoopy :)
SO much fun!
ReplyDeleteWoot! What a pawsome poem Miss Molly...that's the way to get a Bingo in style...The squirrels here chatter and natter at me but their trees are too tall for me so I stay low to the ground and chase the lizards instead...It's all about the chase! Thanks for playing :)
ReplyDeleteYou are super clever. Congrats on the BINGO and the completion of the "Find a person flying a kite" square. Yours is the first I've seen!
