Climbing higher — a haiku

The agile squirrel seeks not to squander time, and it sees world’s follies.

Squirrels are quick and such good climbers of trees, but they also have a propensity towards dashing in front of cars, leaving drivers like me wondering if the squirrel made it to the other side, or it got squished. The squirrels also speed in front of me when I run, or jump around, scaring me sometimes.
