Ground Squirrels

 Ground squirrels aim for salvation
beneath earth's permissive crust


My friend Karen and I walk around the football field at the school most mornings.
This is the time of year little ground squirrels like to burrow down for the winter.
Quite a few entrances can be seen at the edge of the field now.  One day we spied
a little guy kicking out dirt and popping up now and then.  We couldn't get a photo.
 I know they are rodents,
and cause many problems for people, but I couldn't help
but smile when  I saw him.
Just one of God's creatures.

Savor the Day!
