Who gives me all these nuts for free...
Dear God, I truly love her so...
But that dam* camera's got to go!

No, dear God, don't answer his prayer;
let this nut succomb to her stare.
Please think of all of us who see
the magic through her lens for free.
Pray, give the squirrel some stamina,
and our friend Tess her camera.
