Civic Responsibility
When I see my duty, I do it. Take a wobbly old squirrel, grounded. I never hesitate to put them in their place...up in a tree, naturally. If I have enough time, I usually stay and stare up at them, to make sure they plan to stay where they belong. (Funny thing, the way people think you are trying to catch these worthless fuzz-balls.) When I see my way to it, I keep the Postman company, too. They always arrange a cheering section to go along with the Postman, to let the people know he is coming. I do all of this that I can, but I'm usually on watch when he comes to our block, so I just give him the big Hello while I'm on the job. |
