Watching and Waiting

"Watching and Waiting" six sets of watchful eyes peer impishly surveying each move my footprint takes they try to appear waiting quite sheepishly as I stroll into the kitchen, the carpeting earthquakes. twenty-four feet hurriedly stand to touch the ground stalking my every step with rapid heartbeats their "big brother" prancing escalates to astound as I reach into the pantry for delicious treats. swift jumping and cajoling, strong serenade begins overpowered, I submit to demands and requests a brood of hungry canines and felines always wins how does one say "no" to rambunctious animal pets?
*For Black Eyed Susan's Biig Brother Watching You and Why Contest..
