I do not know
And placed it where
The grasses grow
Perhaps a little squirrel
I know
Whose nest survived
Through gales and snow
With secret skills
No man shall know
Or maybe Mr. Mallard for
His Mrs. Mallard
On creek's shore
What matters who has
Put it there
Or who walked by
And stopped to stare
It says "I love you,
All who pass"
Human, animal
And even grass
