She Is Almost a Pet
She is a sweet docile being the baby key deer
I have no idea what to think, I cannot get very near
You can take my word for it, she is not a creature to fear
I strain my eyes to a window in overtime gear.
What is her name? I ask the man of the house, Mr. Dyfe.
I am not sure if we have named her, he said, asking his wife.
I call her sweetie pie, she tells us, she is full of mirth and life.
She shows no sign of struggle, stress, anxiety, or any kind of strife.
Is she almost a pet? I ask, truly wanting to know.
The husband acts weird about this. Ask so-and-so.
The daughter laughs with a giggle that has a warm glow.
She is a truly wonderful family member, this little doe.
