Doghouse Wisdom

It was a dark and stormy night The dog on the doghouse said But over in the pumpkin patch A young lad shakes his head He had sat the whole night through Just to see the Great Pumpkin rise Though again this year, he did not appear His faith he did not compromise For he felt in his heart of hearts The Great Pumpkin would one day appear And if not on this Halloween Then maybe this time next year So what if the others poke fun of him And laugh at him behind his back For he has a faith that he sticks to And their laughter’s a worthless attack And the time that he spent waiting To him – neither stormy nor dark For he saw the light and drew comfort From the promise of this patriarch The lesson that we all should get here If you give up and your faith is dead It will be a dark and stormy night Like the dog on the doghouse said Mdailey 11/8/11
