Excerpt
Fall
Gray Squirrel can tell by crispy air
That fall is on its way.
She gathers ripe acorns to prepare
For a future hungry day.
Fall's bright colors scatter and blow
While crops are gathered in.
Each busy creature seems to know
Harsh storms will soon begin.
Wild birds fly south in flocks together

to settle in
As leaves turn golden-brown,
She finds a place to make her den
Where an Oak has fallen down.
