Puppys First Happy Christmas

NOTE: Soup titles are supposed to allow for apostrophes and yet I cannot get my correct title to post, so I display the title here first above the poem:

Puppy's First Happy Christmas At Christmas, our puppy followed us to the living room where he played with ribbons which littered the floor as we sat opening our Christmas presents. Then we brought out some gifts just for him! Teasing him, we slowly unwrapped a long squiggly racoon toy that squeaked when he bit its tail just right! Watching him, sat our cat nonchalantly as if to say, “Been there, silly dog. Done that.” Dec. 7, 2017 for Broken Wings' It's Christmas Time Again Contest Form 3: Nonet and Theme 2: Happy
