The Dog bared its fangs in vain,
A desperate try to drive away,
The beleaguering Lamb that trailed behind,
Seeking warmth within its light.

The Sheep sang a gentle tune,
In bleats that sought to welcome in,
The distant Pup that mourned alone,
Born of tempests, weighed by woe.

I like exploring misunderstandings between characters. Dog thinks the Sheep is a lamb trying to hurt him. Sheep thinks the Dog is a hurt and scared puppy. They're both right. The Sheep is annoying, and the Dog has been hurt. But they misunderstand each others intentions: Dog is not hurt, he is angry, Sheep is not annoying, he is kind.
