Shadows followed as colours faded
Sky blue into grey into burned black night
Gale force winds beating rain against window pane
Eerie feeling as power lines are downed.
Admiral Nelson however snuggled up in his comfy kennel snores
Oblivious it seemed of this weather watcher
Yet still he will stir as leaves rustle on the outside.
Dog with a soul, faithful friend
Dreaming,Waiting for the Dog Cafe to open
The Menu – never changes
Dried nuts, fresh water, then walkies
Sniff here, pee there
Woff Woff conversation with fellow lead pullers.
Master, well he thinks he’s master
Chats sideways to other dog walkers
While expletives are barked at a tom cat.
Ablution done, exercised for the day
Dog treat, kennel time. Dogs life.
