Here's A Nut Poem by Louisa May Alcott

Here's A Nut

Rating: 3.2


'Here's a nut, there's a nut;
Hide it quick away,
In a hole, under leaves,
To eat some winter day.
Acorns sweet are plenty,
We will have them all:
Skip and scamper lively
Till the last ones fall.'

Aha! A love poem to Monsieur Nutty Squirrel. There is a definite cuteness scampering about in this poem...

She and her family have been people of plain living and high thinking. The nuts here symbolized the ideas falling from the tree of life.These ideas were hidden to be ''eaten'' in winter days. It is lovely the way she taught the children through writing books even she didn't marry all her life. Voted 10.

Alcott's father taught her the sweetness of self-denial. Also, writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Margaret Fuller had an influence on her work. Alcott was an abolitionist and a feminist while writing stories for children. She became successful with stories like Transcendental Wild Oats and Little Women.
