Always Stubborn
I smear your paw prints by mistake.
As I follow your paw-steps.
You are stubborn as always.
Even as you slow down with age…
You try to hide instead of run.
When you were young- our chases were simply for play.
Now you are acting like you need hide to be safe-
Even from your own family.
Weaving and stumbling through old age.
We try to guide you.
But you are stubborn as always.
