It took me a moment to recognize the animal. I was looking for a bird.
I like the musical touch that you produce with alliteration. I envy you that.

Emma,

You found one of my oldies but goodies posts. I thought the image and verse were good companions. Thanks for recognizing the same.

Had to check it out and you did very well on this one with the shortest count of syllables. You caught the antics within the required rules and still gave us the story

Rebekah,

Thanks for your encouragement, blessings, and squeeze. I had this and a 5-7-5 (in this a-letter alliteration style) in preview just awaiting for an appropriate contest. I like alliterations obviously!

-That is quite an image.
-The syllable count is good.
-Squirrels are good at
being acrobats; sometimes
I think they think they are monkeys!
-You show their skill and
"achievements" well in your poem.
-Good luck in the contest.

Thanks for your encouragement.

I had this in preview awaiting an appropriate contest. I actually had another in the same a-letter format for 5-7-5, but the 3-5-3 was just posted today: first-come,first-posted. LOL

You are welcome. Thanks for sharing. We had a squirrel last evening that was hanging upside down from a branch with its hind legs and stretching! That's why I said I think they are part monkey!!
