Barking Maggie

Maggie was barking at me today
I did not know the reason why
She went to her green blanket
Then pawed at it and barked
I could not understand why
The reason for her barking, barking
Until I lifted up the green blanket
To see her dental bone
Ah! ..The mystery solved
She could not get her treat

Robert Pettit Date: 6/9/2017 8:25:00 AM Good poem. I wrote several poems about my last dog named "Fred". He's been gone for three years now, and I miss him very much.

Anne-Marie Coreggia Date: 5/24/2017 11:00:00 PM That's such a sweet poem, Darlene. Our dog, Sasha (a sheltie) does the same as Maggie, she'll let us know right away when she needs something and becomes very agitated when there are loud noises of any kind:) Amitiés Login to Reply
