Where did my little squirrel go?

The other day when I was down by the river I saw many squirrels scampering around.

There was one little squirrel that was particularly attentive to me. He crawled up very close and hugged the ground. He looked like he was begging me for something.

The only thing I could think to say to him was that I had no peanuts with me. I promised him that next time I come down to the river I would bring him some.

Today, I brought a bag of Hope and Harmony farms Raw in the Shell Peanuts.

My little squirrel friend was nowhere to be seen, and I saw no other squirrels around.

It felt like I was at a different river today, though the river looked the same.

I left several peanuts on the ground in hopes that he would find them after I was gone.

I’ll try to find him another day.

My name is Katherine J. Krein. I lost my father in June of 2013, and then I lost my mother in November of the same year. After they both died I went through a mind-warping number obsession that has taken me years to control. This is my story. It is now 2025. I still use this site to post some poems and thoughts. My obsession has faded, however, I still notice the numbers. Faith, hope, and love is what guides me now.
