Book XX: Chickadee

loquacious
a word you don't know
but probably understand

chitchat chipper
while the cool skies chomp
a little talk to warm up

there's so much to say
tucked away in the snow
come on out to converse

vivacious
the talk you know well
so let the spring out

Book XIX: Groundhog

you keep your eyes peeled
but why should we trust you anyway
you're never right you know
you're never never ever right

your umbra's umbrageous
yet once in a while you pop up
from icy holes to entertain us
to hail around the corner

if you were on watch duty
we'd all get ambushed


your hole's even icier now
how'd you make it out anyway
you're never right you know
you're never never ever right
