The Mole

The Mole
Mole, little mole,
digging hole after hole,
with resolve and persistence,
you point out your existence.
We've got our noses in the skies,
and up high our eyes,
'til we stumble and tumble
on the hole you dug humble.
Thank you, dear mole,
for digging your hole,
and reminding us all,
that it's the unseen and small,
guiding our paths or making us fall.

Great poem! Did you know they are protected here in Germany?

I'm glad we don't live in Germany! We need to get rid of our moles. They drive us crazy!!
