Cloudy with a Chance of Squirrels

I love my backyard.

We have a black walnut tree.

Which means we have lots and lots of squirrels.

You might be wondering why 

I bother staring up at them,

scrambling twenty, thirty feet up.

What chance does a little brown dog have

at catching a squirrel high up in a walnut tree?

But every once in awhile,

it RAINS SQUIRREL.

So far, just one at a time.

But who's complaining?

I have been outside in squirrel showers

TWICE in two years.

They fall RIGHT AT MY FEET.

And for me, those are odds 

worth looking up for.
