It's the day before Christmas I catch them and hold them.
And all through the house "Be good", I insist.
The puppies are squeaking They lick me, then run off
An old rubber mouse. To see what they've missed.
The wreath which had merrily And now as I watch them
Hung on the door The thought comes to me,
is scattered in pieces That theirs is the spirit
All over the floor. That Christmas should be.
The stockings that hung Should children and puppies
In a neat little row Yet show us the way,
Now boast a hole in And teach us the joy
Each one of the toes. That should come with this day?
The tree was subjected Could they bring the message
To bright-eyed whims, That's written above,
And now, although splendid, And tell us that, most of all
It's missing some limbs. Christmas is love.
A Christmas Poem From The Dog
Eyeing hydrants, digging holes,
Drinking from the toilet bowls...
Playing games of "tug-o'-war",
Putting sratch marks on your door...
Rolling over, playing dead,
Getting dog hair on your bed...
Scaring folks who bring the mail,
Chasing cars, as well as my tail...
Barking, begging, heeling, howling,
And also, on occasion, growling,
Romping through a field of grass
Sneezing, snoozing, passing gas...
Sniffing everything I see,
Peeing on the Christmas tree...
Woofing, wagging, chomping, chewing,
These are things I sure love doing!
(But I'll try not to do that tree thing...)
