Gypsy-whippsy
swishing tail
trott on spindley legs
and drink gallons of water
the ball? No I didn't ask you to bring me the ball
Can't you see that I'm trying to write
won't you leave me alone mutt?
but you wont you keep emploring
with big floppy brown eyes
and a cold wet nose
the bone? NO I didn't ask for it either!
Sheesh where do you get off stealing my time
since when did you pay rent?
I say as I toss the ball away
and look down at the keyboard once more
only to find in the corner of my eye
the ball trotting back to me
on spindley legs
and laughing brown eyes
knowingly drop the ball in my lap;
this is what I needed to do
write now
Gypsy is my Rhodesian Ridgeback/ Hound mix that I got at the Humane Society. She's about to turn 1yr old. She's been my traveling companion for the past 9 months.
