Ben, Quite a good piece here. I think you should submit it somewhere! Try Poet's Market. It'll only cost you a few stamps to send it places and see what happens.  There are a few spots where, if you read it aloud, a syllable here and there could be tweaked a little, but it's a pretty neat poem. I had to come read it because my oldest son asked me THE craziest little-kid question EVER when he was 3 years old. "Why is a squirrel?" I could never answer that one. Now that he's 16 he still can't explain what he wanted to know. He *may* have wanted to say "why is a squirrel's tail bushy?" and not had the words--he was a late speaker. Anyway, it's one of our family jokes. Only it has no punchline. Linda
