Poor Tilly

She looks at you
With those deep brown eyes
Asking a silent question
Wanting no lies

Am I here to stay
Is this my home
No more to wonder
No more to roam

Her tummy is poorly
Didn't make  the door
Her face is a picture
She had messed on the floor

Its ok girl
I try to re-assure
But she is frightened 
Wont come through the door

Who would have beat her
Its not her fault
She is such a clean girl
Without any doubt.

So i made a fuss 
Coaxed her back in
Told her dont worry
 It isnt a sin

The door was  locked
You couldnt get to the grass
So smile with those brown eyes
Your home at last.
