with hindquarters narrow and far,
her nose sniffs around in the pantry
while her tail is out dusting the car.
Her muzzle is noble and wolf-like
she wears four white socks with a smile,
she’ll bark at intruders politely
but “watch dogging” isn’t her style.
Short Boxy, the wonder pup fuzzball,
ferociously growls as she scoots,
the fantasy squirrels all around her
take cover and shake in their boots.
She climbs to her perch on the sofa
and curls in a ball for a nap,
one eye is half open and watchful
for a treat or a welcoming lap.
The girls, of course, aren't truly sisters
although they would challenge that call,
young Cali the big family sweetheart
and “A.K.A. Lucy”, the small.
and “A.K.A. Lucy”, the small.
