Notes About The Poem

My Nephew's New Baby

A Sunday afternoon at my daughter's. My mother, grandkids and nephew are there. We discuss what the relationship of my nephew's new baby could be to me! Would cute, sweet Levine be my great-nephew? Levine lifts his fluffy white head and barks! Written at family gathering Sunday July 10, 2016 for the Triple Tetractys Contest of Eve Roper

Too funny, a dog being a member of the family yes, but to call him your great-nephew, too much.

Is Levine a Jewish dog? Don't know which is cuter, the little girl or the Jewish dog. Hardy, harr, harr. Love, daver
