copse

my dog is her wolf
a little red riding hood
my neighbour's daughter

losing their acorns
the woodpeckers and bluejays
the lumberjacks come ..

[ the woodpeckers and bluejays
also hide acorns beneath the earth , like squirrels ]

    I like the compression of the first one. Just love it. How kids see the world!

    Loved both of your takes on the prompt.. Indeed, the "fairy tale" toning of this verse is charming!
