Dog Haiku

[dormantrogue]

 I found this doggie Haiku in the local paper several years ago and had clipped it out and made it into a bookmark, then forgot about it. I just rediscovered it and decided to share. I have no idea who wrote it origionally but it's a winner (to me at least).

Dog Haiku

I love my master.

Thus I perfume myself with

This long rotten squirrel.

I lie belly-up

In the sunshine, happier than

You will ever be.

Today I sniffed

Many dog butts-- I celebrate

By kissing your face.

I sound the alarm!

Paperboy, come to kill us all--

Look! Look! Look! Look! Look!

I sound the alarm!

Garbage man, come to kill us all--

Look! Look! Look! Look! Look!

I lift my leg and

Whiz on each bush. Hello Spot--

Sniff this and weep.

How do I love thee?

The ways are as numerous as

My hairs on the rug.

My human is home!

I am so ecstatic I have

Made a puddle.

I hate my choke chain.

Look World, they strangle me! Ack

Ack ack ack ack ack!

Sleeping here, my chin

On your foot -- no greater bliss --

Well, maybe catching rats.

Look in my eyes and

Deny it. No human could

Love you as much as I do.

The cat is not all

Bad. She fills the litter box

With Tootsie Rolls.

I am your best friend.

Now, always, and especially

When you are eating.

My owner's mood is

Romantic -- I lie near their

Feet. I fart a big one.
