dear squirrel...

dear squirrel...

todae while i was jogging..i found u lying on your side by the roadside. initially i tot it was a log..but when i discovered it was u..i squeaked and ran off. jogging awae...i was worried that u might be flattened by a car or stepped on...so i went back to look for u.. there u were..peacefully lying with your paws in a praying position...i called out to u..."sshh! sshh!" but u din make any signs of scampering awae..so i tot u were most probably dead.
i used a twig to prod u to the side of the road...so that u would be safe from trouble.. your tummy was still soft..and there were no flies/ants over u... somehow i was reminded of stuffed animals in the roald dahl's short story "The Landlady".. And then i decided maybe it's even better to move u over to the grass patch since most of us return to the ground when we are dead meat too... so i found another twig and chop-sticked u under the tree..since that shd be your favourite spot and ought to be your forever resting ground...
please bless my (fluff)fren...mimi also the squirrel... with an abundant and never-ending supply of pumkins... and me the winner of the hongbao toto draw on thur... =)
