Raccoon
While I was sleeping,
Beside a half full moon,
We had a visit
From a rascally raccoon.
He came in the dark
So I could not see.
He came to steal food
Without paying a fee.
I know where he was
From the print on our chair.
And the missing dog food
Was extremely unfair.
I know he must have
A family to feed
But he is not doing
A very good deed.
I wonder where he goes
During the day.
Does he snuggle with his family
While I go out to play?
And while he sleeps
What does he dream?
Does he have visions
Of freshly made ice cream?
