My Dog, She Sits

My dog, she sits on the lawn chair like a human, on the porch
She listens to the wind chimes like me, enjoys the moment and the breeze
She watches over everything, no-one can get anywhere near here
Without her saying something to let me know all about it
She has a strong nose too, so even if she doesn’t see something, 
                   --- She will always detect it ---
My sweet dog, enjoying her life on the porch, brings to me
                       --- Love and joy every day ---
                   --- Yes, she sits for a treat too--- :)
