Grape Dog

Grape Dog
‘Like a grape?’
There was a dog that ate grapes
The dog was happy eating them
For they tasted so sweet
Especially the black ones
So wonderfully yummy

They were small and seedless
Disappearing with a bite
And a couple of chews
Into the dog’s belly
This was real life

And the dog was a one off
Totally unique in her ways
Any other dog would die
After eating a single grape
Not half a pound of them
Normal dog food was bland

Not even tuna fish
Or chicken breast
Got a sniff or lick
It was only grapes

Now the dog dozed in the sun
Her belly full and hunger gone

She’d sleep all day
Then run and play
And eat some more
She was the grape dog

With a purple head
Red body with lilac spots
Green feet and a blue tail
A rather cool one off
Grape eating dog
