A Pet Minichu

Petite five-pound Yorkie; 
mother nature is full of small surprises, he's 
scant dorky. 

Mind of his own, 
always so hungry, gnaws on his
dull bone. 

Wind howls, 
Tator, my whizz,
growls. 

I wish my small Yorkie 
could talk, instead, demands with his 
growls.

A little homage to your pet. I wrote poems about my tiger tabby. Yes, I sometimes wish he could talk. Say meow each time I ask a question of hold converse with him. His name is Boy Baron Lewis. I understand most of his language.
