My Dog Sassy
My house echos with laughter with my Sassy girl
She will be two in November energizing my world
Watching her two little older brothers makes her glad
picks up all their habits the good and the bad.
Her left ear points up like a spear reaching for the sky
Her right ear lazily droops down to the side
Her nose is black and her eyes are brown
with a white face and a dark spot on her crown.
She loves to run and run and is playful to the bite
for she chews on her brothers as they scatter in fright
she gets so excited she jumps and whines
her tail wags so fast as if she was wind
She is still a little shy and cautious with new
She steals the boys treat and toys ever so shrewd
She barks as loud as thunder and rapid as gunfire
ever alert and guarding to all dogs she would inspire.
Yet she still has a puppy face and looks so cute
but growls like a grizzly bear to strangers aloof
Though she is still a little clumsy in my heart she resides
for every night in my bed she will sleep by my side.
