The Alley Hustle
Prompt: A second piece of a groundhog's heart!
A Mother Groundhog's Story Part: 2
There was a scuffle, a tuffle, an alley shuffle,
Right there in the streets!
My name is Russell, I squibble and hustle,
I'm a squirrel in the trees!
I saw it go down, right in town, with coons all around,
A mother groundhog flees!
Right on site, at night, a mama does fight,
A baby bleeds!
With feet of white, left to right,
Two babies left to plead!
Mama wins, grabs the twins, she defends,
And runs free!
A baby she lost, a sad criss-cross,
She has to let it be!
She got away, to this day,
A sad mama sees!
