Nature Part 1

I woke up to the sun a-calling me Got dressed and went outside to take a leak No worries, folks are many miles from here My neighbors are the squirrels and birds and deer The early morning air was still and sweet The sun seemed in no rush to clear the trees Two yearlings eyed me from a berry patch I felt self-conscious, so I turned my back And laughed about our built-in modesty I zipped up and said, loudly, "Thank you, Eve" My hound dog ambled up, then stopped to yawn And next he yelped his fav'rite morning song "Ah-ooooo, I am so hungry I could die Ba-woolf, it's been a while since suppertime Uh-gulf, I put my bowl there by the door Bow-wow, make sure my Gravy Train is warm"
