Hel(p) hounds

0 0 0
                                    

As heavy as a bolder
They run right over your feet
Claws like eagle talons
  Dig into your toes
      Jumps up
Knocking us down

Running out the front door
Breaking shot glasses and ashtrays
Chewing up your Eyewear
Ripping up the chair

As loud as a race Car
Right in your ear
It'll bite your shoes
And tare your clothes

But when the time comes
They'll sit in your lap
  Make you laugh
And when you get sleepy
Lie next to you and nap

Always knows when you are sad
Try to help the times we're mad
Face kisses and paw "pets"
Snuggling up on your chest
They always love us,
Cry for us when we are gone
No matter how hard it gets
