The Oak Leaves

I love these photos from 

FineLittleDay!

If only I could walk right up

And ask if he might like some help

Or perhaps a play mate

To occupy his fort?

***

I once happened upon just such a fort

When I wandered into the woods

And away from our camp site

In the Catoctin Mountains

And spotted the only flying squirrel

I've ever seen in the wild

SOMEWHERE IS A PICTURE OF ME IN SAID FORT
BUT I CAN NOT SEEM TO LOCATE IT
