A New Family Member

Crestview's St. Regis

A new puppy Regis
my sister bought
brown and white
ball of fluff
springer spaniel
every little boys dream
but really it is the mother's
a new baby
sniff sniff sniff
he waddles around
on bowlegged legs
big floppy white paws
scamper flop bite snuggle
auburn soulful eyes
can't i chew just a little bit-
on your shoelace?
no biting bubba
i call him bubba
a bearcub wubbie
prancing with a toy
ears up-play with me?
the puppy dance
then flop to the floor
big sigh, eyes close
rest time-but not for long
where's mommy
