Off his leash, he escapes, diving under a chair. Through each room of our house, he darts here; he darts there. Little scamp can’t be caught. He careens crazily. For his collar I reach, but he dashes from me. To his food dish he goes, Ah! My time has now come. He is back on the leash and unable to run. I know our puppy will calm down in time. We find his toys and bones he likes to bite. We gently rub his tummy as he lies beside us with the coming of the night. Lullaby, Doggie. Lay down your head. Sweet dreams for our Snickers asleep on our bed. for the Contest: Rock Me Around the Clock or Rock Me to Sleep-- Rhythm Poems

Hi Andrea, hope you are having a wonderful start to the new year. I see I have some catching up to do. Had all the grandkids for the holidays and was more interested in playing than reading! But they've gone home now...Big Sigh.

Awe!! :) I sure know that feeling, I have had my Yorkie since he was 6 weeks old, now he is 4 and I am still chasing him around to place his collar on, or he'll bring his dish to me to let me know he wants fed. 7 +++
