basking in
the divine caress
of spring warmth
Chipmunk In Morning Sun
Home
is a hole
perfectly round
made in the ground
Popping Out
out of the burrow
into the sun
stirrings of spring have begun
Fall Preparations
room in the cheeks
room in the stash house
work to be done
Chipmunk Dance
tiny feet
keep the beat
to the music of life
Evading The Predator
chipmunks sound
their one chirp warning
everyone down the hole to safety
Omnivore
who knew?
chipmunks are
the early birds
Out and About
a breath of fresh air
to carry us through
to true Spring
Break Time
crabapple snack
fuel for
nut gathering
Bon Appetite
chomp chomp
chubby cheeked
chipmunk feeds
Considerations
scurry and hurry of gathering
or
savor the warmth of the sun
Abode
time and weather
downed the tree and birdhouse
chipmunk’s new abode
One of a Scurry
chin scratch
bare patch
April molt
Treasure
All sorts and conditions
of acorns
constitute the chipmunks hoard.
Greeting
Emerging from his burrow
the first thing the chipmunk does
is salute the sun
Chipmunk
Stillness is my shield
as I hide behind a stem.
