zooey

While doing some spring cleaning the other day, I stumbled across this poem I wrote for the ole dog.

And since she's never featured on the blog anymore, I figured, why not, for old times' sake?

And while I readily admit she drives me crazy & I often pretend to hate her more than I do...

we'll keep her.

(FOR NOW, if you're reading this, Zooey!)

Zooey

"Man's best friend" - 

clearly they've never

smelled her rear end.

She's aptly named -

at times I tend

to think she's insane.

Obsessed with food -

if you've got it,

her eyes are glued.

Always eager to walk -

all the squirrels

and birds to stalk.

The leash she hates -

pulls at every step

dreading slow gait.

Hyper all the time -

but still... so cute.

Glad she's mine.
