Its a Dogs Life

Cold icy winds bite me gripping my very soul Fingers and toes are numb, I can’t remember feeling whole Rain lashes down; the gales try to blow me over But a dogs life must come first, because I’ve got to walk Rover! Jan Allison 12th June 2014

Very good Jan. It reminds me of when I was a young boy in Pa. and had a paper route. I had a little dog that walked with me through all seasons. But in the Winter, when I reached the end of the route, she would be raising one foot from the snow and then another in an attempt to warm them. So I would pick her up and let her ride in my newspaper bag with her head and front paws hanging out all the way home. That was back in the 70's. Kids today wouldn't be able to relate to that image. Good write.
