Sliding under the fence

curious as can be

the prize can be seen clearly

near an apple tree

 

Climbing a tree

everything must be right

looking around 

no one in sight

 

There it stands

filled with luscious treats

must not leap prematurely

the mud is deep

 

Time to jump

wind giving a hand

leaping to glory

wind chimes sound like a band

 

On the pole

reaching for the feeder

a luscious seed

out comes a greeter

 

Running away

having heard a shot

a mouthful of seeds

it deters me not

 

Sitting on the fence

this is a fun game

gathering seeds all day

victory to proclaim
