Little Giant

he does not know that he is small in his world, he's nine feet tall the little black dog with the long tail sees the world high is he's being held over the fence, his eyes are trained his ears perk up as he observes his domain his little head moves side to side nothing will escape his roaming eye he knows where the neighbor's cat shies away he knows the field kids like to play he knows each pet in other yards he's perched up high like a little czar if i gently put him down his fuzzy face wears a frown he yaps and yelps jumping in the air wanting me to raise him where his view is clear i place him up in my arm and hand he sees the world at his command the little dog so proud and defiant he thinks he's so big my little giant
