Crackers and Cheese

I had rescue my two little dogs for a few days now and decide to keep them anyhow They may have chewed my furniture up and if not careful they would slurp out of my cup But they had won me over anyway and in my heart and home they would stay One afternoon I needed a snack crackers and cheese to calm my hunger attack I sliced the cheddar and carefully arranged on buttery crackers to quell those hunger pains On plate with napkin beside onto dinning room table my feast reside Two sets of hungery eyes licking their lips as they spied I sit to eat my afternoon treat but needed drink for snack to be complete Safe my snack for it was up high two small dogs would need to fly But when I return with drink in hand only plain crackers on a plate so bland It seems I did not scoot the chair into the table leaving little legs to leap as they were able Two little doggies as happy as they can be smacking their cheese stealing lips at me Proud with eyes begging for more I gave them the crackers they gobbled off the floor
