A Friend indeed

There’s an acorn falling from a tree

it hasn’t landed yet –

It didn’t fall down naturally

it simply lost a bet.

A furry squirrel who happened by

was in cahoots you know,

With a well-known shady gambler

who went by, Mr. Crow.

But acorn, he was clever

he wasn’t just some nut,

He bounced far off a lower branch

then rolled to his friend's hut.

What squirrel and crow had yet to learn

was that acorn was a thinker,

and his little friend, both black and white

was really quite a stinker.

And in his hut, he piled them high - right up to his little eye!
