As It Is

Canine bedfellows

It's pitch black and the only sound is my breath

That I'm fighting to keep under control

Until the little tip tap tip tap

Comes up the stairs

And pushes the door open

Then the tip tap tip tap

Turns into two

And each cross my room

Hesitating at my bed

Then they jump and I yelp

And she comes up to try and lick my face

So I laugh and push her away

He flops down beside me, warm and cuddly

Thank you for the tip tap tip tap.
