Simple and easy

 

Did you know

that for a squirrel

to climb a tree

is as easy

as it is for you

to walk on the street?

 

Was he going up,

or just coming down

in high speed

when something

caught his eye?

 

Maybe that’s why

he held still

for a second,

before continuing

with a smile.
