It’s soiled at the root of the tree. The line that has formed for the spree. It’s beyond belief, The wait for relief, But pleasing to dog’s a long pee.

Soiled at the root of the tree? -- Dig a trench. Man the barricades... Arf, arf. (Haven't been able to find you, what with that new avatar, there. Very nice, Kim.) :) Gershon

Yes, for the picture prompt. I write using my ipad, used to get the pictures to attach but have had problems for a while. Glad you enjoyed this limerick, Sara!
