That sound of flapping ears
Soft covers that make his head
Whipping around to say
I now am out of bed
Coming down the stairs
He turns and looks at me
Then stretches full out
An arched back I see
He wanders to my chair
My lap he puts his head
The signal for me to see
He now is out of bed
Pushing his head into my chest
He loves me is what it means
But soon that little whimper
Tells me, he is hungry it seems
The stubby tail wags away
To the kitchen I am led
His nose now hits the fridge
No more need be said
A snack is what his mind is set
A sausage or a wiener
A piece of cheese will also do
To keep from getting leaner
Now out the door he says to me
That whimper tell it all
Have some business to attend
I’ll bark when I need in
He comes in and gives a paw
And gives his head a shake
Then turns his head and smiles at me
And then it’s back to bed
