Valentine Lovers
Up and down from limb to limb
He chases her she chases him
Through the tree tops
Jumping branch to branch
Round the big gum tree they dance
Up into the maple she’s on his tail
Nothing to hang on not even a rail
Day after day I see them fly
Moving so fast right up to the sky
Not even aware she loves him so well
Of anything else they never can tell
Not bothered by birds not even the Hawk
Unafraid of the cat that continues to stalk
They lived in the tree the woodpeckers’ nest
She lives upstairs but his hole’s the best
He goes right in no need to knock
No doors to open not even a lock
Now that it’s spring and the sap is rising
As I watch the squirrels it’s not surprising
No family planning just natural instinct
Won’t be long till we have little sprints
