little senora

i saw her again
she just breezed by inches away
from my window
little senora
brown and white
fast and furious
docking between buildings
swinging from one branch to the other
across the wooden fences
shes the messenger
for the other hibernating squirrels
i guess they did not store up enough food
before winter caught up with them
