Doggie Attention
Though they love to eat obnoxious stuff
like bees and grass and dryer fluff,
see how they bristle
at my whistle?
Come a-running
for more funning?
Making pious little prayers for
just one doggie biscuit more,
they’re more pawsome
than they’re awesome—
begging treats
with doggie feets.
They’re authors of expressions of
countless little signs of love.
Giving sure signs
of their designs,
they tell no lies
with tails and eyes,
Prompt words today are bristle, obnoxious, awesome, pious and author.

When they smile, it covers their whole body from nose to tail, but especially the eyes~!

They are very good boys. Usually. Very protective of their mom. They come to get me to come up in the house if I’m still in the studio at midnight and wait outside the door the whole time if I don’t let them in. Morrie protects me from my gardener of 19 years!

I am very fond of dogs. We had a Dachshund who left us 4 years back after giving us joys to last a lifetime. Now I spend time mostly with the strays in our neighbourhood. 😊
