Good Ol' Muff Poem by Richard D Remler

.....


Don't tell Muff
He's not a Squirrel.
He won't listen
To a word.

Don't tell Muff
He's not a Squirrel,
He'll just huff and growl
Like it's absurd.

He'll gather acorns
Every day,
And hide them
Secretly away.

And in his wiley
Basset pride,
He'll build
A nest so
Bona-fide
That he can very
Safely hide
The bounty of
His countryside,
Even though
The dog ignores
The fact he spends
Winter indoors.

Don't tell Muff
He's not a Squirrel.
He's as much a Squirrel
As Muff can be.

And I know it's hard
To understand,
'Til you see ol'Muff
Climb a tree.
