Ode to a Thief

Happy Day, Happy Day
It's time to blog-
Time to blog
about a dog

.
Dogs are trouble
this we know
even though
we love them so.
.
.
.

.
.
The weather has warmed
(what a relief)
The sunlight emboldening
a dog that's a thief
.

.

.
.
As I was out raking
He'd entered the shed
The whole of the dog,
(and not just his head).
.

.

.
.
My back had been turned
so I didn't know
What happens to dogs
When so boldly they go.
.

.

.
.
In search of new toys
in my rummage sale
He'd taken a peek
And he'd spotted a whale.
.
.

.
.
I'd come to the house
to rest for a bit
And spotted this teddy
all covered with spit!
.
.

.
.

"Where did this come from?"
I wondered aloud
But I soon grabbed my camera
when I spied that dog...
.

.

.
.
So silent he was
So bold and carefree
By this time already
he had stolen just three.
.

.

.
.
By the end of the day
there were seals and bats-
Raccoons and Christmas
And a Halloween cat.
.

.

.
.
They were all over my yard
strewn all over the place
(When Kelli retrieved one-
He'd bring more to replace).
.
.
.

.
.
So a word to the wise
is what I have in mind
Tie those dogs up securely
or they might rob you blind.
.
.

.

Love to all.
