HEY!? Where is everybody? Where is everything? Where am I?
What has happened to the sky?
I could ask the birds that fly,
If I only weren’t so shy,
Ask an owl, and I might die.
Overnight it disappeared,
Cloudy giant softly neared,
It’s exactly as I feared,
Weather here has been so weird.
Hard to see the limbs I climb,
Icy parts that slip like slime,
If I fall off just one time,
It would really be a crime.
Where’s the spot I hid that food?
Need to hunt, not in the mood,
Who knew winter was so crude?
Guess I’ll eat what’s partly chewed.
Half a fir cone hidden here,
For those days when it’s severe,
Surely spring will soon appear,
When it warms up, I will cheer.

Thank you, Carol. I have just enough hazelnuts hidden (if I can find them) to last me until spring. You hang in there too.

I think (I hope) the worst of the weather is behind us now, and he should be fine.
