you will let anyone on the slide

deer bounded over the fence and slid down the slide
graceful in one huge leap – almost a glide
my dogs are barking disapprovingly
deer runs back up the slide coughing gleefully
you’ll let anyone on the slide says my husband Jim
This is cause for war, so now I won’t let him.
