Whats All the Fuss About?

Do I know what all the fuss is about?
When their long legs pass by in a flurry
Languid some just slump and often passed out
The smell of urine drenches their worry
Look gazing eyes that pass me by, woo hoo!
She’s perky! I really want to pursue!
Grr! She’s gone; they must have turned down that way
But my lady’s going elsewhere today

My lady’s smart, clicks her way down the street
And I accompany her at her feet!
She calls me Fluffy, a name I despise
Typical for a Poodle, no surprise!
She picks me up and then kisses my snout
“Oooh, peaches what is all the fuss about?”

What a cute pet name, "Fluffy." She probably just sees you as a sweetie pie. Cute poem, David! Love, Carolyn
