distant engine purr
crunching gravel
ears perk
tail shifts slightly from left
to right
panting ensues –
pacing nails
click and clack upon
the linoleum
eyes dart to the door
to the window
to the door –
jumping ecstatic
spinning cookies
whirling dervish  
on steroids and LSD
turning to infinity –
whines escape
guttural grumbles of discontent
lips wet, salivating
eagerness all encompassing –
each day I look at my dogs
when I enter my home
we share a moment
as I am expecting
an important package –
