Trio of Squirrels Whilst it Rains

I'm so  
overwhelmed  
with happiness  
presently.  
 
I could hardly  
breathe,  
because what  
was seen,  
was true beauty.  
Nature, at  
its finest...  
 
Hardly know  
the words to  
describe,  
oh my.  
So I will try...  
 
One squirrel,  
running past  
as the rain  
is falling.  
A squirrel!!!  
I feel nature  
is calling!  
 
Then a second  
approached,  
oh so fast.  
Closer,  
right past,  
circling near,
where I sat.  
 
As a thought  
to write,  
came to me.  
A third squirrel  
passed clear to see.  
 
So happy,  
to witness this  
presently,  
bursting with joy  
just for me.

Author's Note
As I sat outside, attempting to read/write poetry. That's when I saw it, as it rained heavily down. One squirrel running past, oh so close. Past the flower bushes, where he/she stopped momentarily before running off into the distance. Then a few seconds later, another...
 
  This one came a bit closer to stop and stare at me directly. Before running in a circle to catch up with it's friend. That's when the idea to write this poem striked, when a third decided to appear. Looking smaller than the other two, running past for what I assume was him/her looking for the other two.
 
  In that brief moment with the beautiful creatures, I felt like everything was happening "for" me. My mood suddenly felt brighter than it has been the last few days. Enjoy!💜
