Henry’s Return

9 Comments

Henry knows all the comfy seats up high in the fir trees. It was time to get off ground level. So many dogs were being walked in the nearby path. Up he climbed until he needed a break from the exertion. Just in time, he found his cot in a high-up perch and lay down for a midday nap.

I think I see an eye. I definitely see his right front foot. Count his fingers! His right? back foot is sticking up into the air. Apparently his bed is too small for him.

And of course there is the telltale-tail….

The climb was tough

I’m high enough, 

I’m safe up here,

And when I peer,

Across the bay 

I have to say.

It’s work to do,

But what a view.

    So cute, Anneli! I’d fall right off of that skinny branch. 🤭

    I am glad we have no racoons here, although the skunks can make up for it some days. Happy Tuesday Anneli. Allan

    It is a fun and cute poem, and that is a great picture. Is that a racoon?
