Winter Is Near
November 1985


“Winter Is Near,” Friend, Nov. 1985, 11

Winter Is Near

By Bertra Kusik

Little chipmunk, do you know

The cold is near? Soon it will snow.

It’s time to gather nuts and seeds

And store them well for winter’s needs.

Stock your tunnels, pile them tight

To keep you warm each frosty night.

Fill your pouches, scamper your feet,

Get ready to nap—and eat and eat!
