The Chipmunk
May 18th, 2007
Heart of autumn!
Weather meet,
Like to sherbert
Cool and sweet.
Stock-still I stand,
And him I see
Prying, peeping
From Beech-tree;
Crickling, crackling
Gleefully!
But, affrighted
By wee sound,
Presto! vanish–
Whither bound?
So did Baby,
Crowing mirth
E’en as startled
By some inkling
Touching Earth,
Flit (and whither?)
From our hearth!
Herman Melville
