Two Squirrels

 On a walk in the ‘burbs

I was startled to see

Two squirrels at work

In a way new to me.


Each was clenching, with teeth, 

Something plastic and weird.

(For a squirrel, at least,

That is how it appeared.)


One raced with a container

That used to hold milk

And the other’s held mustard

Or food of that ilk.  


So my question is what

Were they planning to do 

With containers like that?

Oh, how I wish I knew!
