Love Biscuits

Walking the yard with shovel in hand Cruising back and forth just as planned Trying to pick up every last pile If the wife steps in one she gets hostile Didn't think this through from the start Three dogs are great but this from the heart Of the many jobs you have to do The dirtiest of all is picking up poo Dogs are creative with their poo Over the years I've seen a few So here are a couple of the best Not enough room to list the rest The Walking poo is always a trip Spreads out in one long strip Why can't they be still and squat Could they please stay in one spot Elephant poo is a surprise when found This mammoth pile weighs about a pound It really stands out above them all Quite a feat because my dogs are small If you have a party here is a tip Be careful with the onion dip Dogs really like that goo But it leads to Diarrhea poo Purple is a color you don't want to find It's hard to get this one out of your mind The Hide and Seek poo will keep you busy when done Searching to find what's been eaten,what fun From Kalamazoo to Timbuktu Nothing is like the Houdini poo Now you see it now you don't Keep your eyes on it, this one will float Winter cleanup can sometimes be hard Snow after snow just covers the yard Making layers upon layers of Icicle poo Remember the horror of the thaw of '02 Just when you think the job is over One more little gift from Rover What's that on the bottom of your shoe Nothing but a piece of Camouflage poo If you have dogs this is nothing new I'm just really tired of picking up poo Contest: Everyone Poops Sponsored by: Roy Jerden Written by:Greg Hoffman 8/20/2015

Congrats on this winning write. I have more than 3, but I have never had trouble as you so vividly put it. If you read my poem Talking Dog you'll understand why.
