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