Written 6/18/2023

Millie our three-year-old  
With tears that rolled 
Down her pink little cheeks 
As she looks around and peeks 
Under her dolls bed 
And under its bedspread.

I went out to see what was wrong,
It was going on too long.

"Mommy, I cannot find my doll. 
I had her wrap in her shawl
And laid her here in her bed."

I look up our yorkie has fled 
Into the house to his bed.

There under his chin laid the doll.
"No. No Loll. It’s not your doll."

Pups, they can always find their cozy place can't they? Puppies are the trickiest. This little guy needed a lesson in sharing. Poor little sweet girl. Ruff :0(

Loved this poem. Dogs can be pests. Hope you'll find your door. Who knows, it may be with your neighbor.
