My Friend The Hedgehog

Did'nt expect to open my door and find two eyes pearing at me in the night,it gave me such a fright. Which I'm not a shamed to admit.

But then when I slowly moved closer I noticed a rather harmeless lonely looking hedgehog on my lawn, Oh I thought what a shame to be out there on his own, and on a cold winters night, while I'm lucky enough to be sitting indoors in the warm.

But knowing that he needs to roam, I quietly left him all alone, tip toeing away,so glad he came my way, even though he slips quietly through my hedge until he's seen now more.
