Squirrel at Algonkian Park Virginia, Sohan
A Squirrel
Like a squirrel running towards the nut
So do our life come to an end
Each day is an opportunity to be better
In toiling hard for forward-looking success
The squirrel took birth in the year of horse
Like a nine-month old baby crawling to a bed
Hungry on the day of solar eclipse
Such is the beauty of life
That squirrels move along with time
Only to be confounded
Which is the greatest gift?
Life or time
Time heals as flourished squirrels are in search for food
And they parallel with humans in sparkling black eyes
Feeding on the rare nuts from trees
Because nothing stands to fear them but their will
To overcome fear is what leads them to stand still
While I praise thee, despite his creation
A squirrel is forever indebted to mercy
