When?

beaver found a dam! politics calm down
‘tis a stranger wishing; fishing for more
animal sounds: slap, splash! crowning thou now
whilst stubbornness does show? a hero – score
beaver floating, swimming; breaking small twigs
problem solver; master? faster, taste – wow
finding: words, punctuation; pick a fig
stole a whistle! hum a tune? for a cow
escaping, escaping, escaping… hey
all rituals golden; oh, roaming now
holding an egg? tea with that? go… no way
characters moving within a play – thou
‘tis a stranger, fading faster! yes, yes
beaver writing, all day… bliss; ‘tis, oh – fess
