Having a dog is one of the greatest joys of my life. Daily, I look at him and am thankful for his unconditional love. But, not every moment is one of  bliss.

Whether weather is agreeable or not, we trudge onward...

Joy! 

Don't want to leave the bed

My pup does not agree

With blanket, cover head

He barks and needs to pee

How can his tail be wagging

When all I want is sleep

My droopy bum is dragging

I fake a whine and weep

He sees right through my act

Jumps off the bed with glee

He doesn't see I'm whacked

I mumble cattily

Eyes linger on window

The pane is soaking wet

Eject from comfy pillow

Questioning my choice of pet
