Hat Bueckert Poet Monchielle Stanza

I Wait For You Each Day

I wait for you each day
Watching out the window
I wonder where you went
Not somewhere I could go?
That's how my time is spent

I wait for you each day
Pull stuffing out of toys
Maybe go through the trash
Guard house from outside noise
Snacking on my new stash

I wait for you each day
I'm mostly sawing logs
Can't wait for you, to sniff
Were you with other dogs?
I can tell in one whiff....

I wait for you each day
Except on the weekend
Go for an early roam
Full day with my best friend
I love when you are home

I wait for you each day
When you leave, do you say,
Something like I love you?
I tilt my head one way
To say I love you too
