Invocation to the Squirrel Muses

Invocation to the Squirrel Muses

Lay out several nuts (acorns or hickory or walnuts, etc.) in your writing space.  Then speak out-loud:

Welcome Fellow Squirrels into my space!

Let’s play, My Squirrel Friends!

Planting ideas, chasing words, jumping from topic to topic, inventing new wonders of

writing!

Flicking our tails in constant motion, we “chee” at the world, while we

Build nests out of words,

Create snug homes for

Ideas, phrases, sentences,

High in the trees of thought.

Let’s play, My Squirrel Friends!

Who wants some nuts?

Chase you up the tree of words!
