Description of my dog.
Dogamus
My dog, she sleeps abnormally
She flops down on her back
Extends her paws quite formally.
They're white; all else is black.
No,not quite all. Let's set things right.
Her neck is white as snow.
Her belly and her butt are white.
She wants those parts to show.
Perhaps she dreams contentedly,
But how am I to know?
What fantasies do puppies see
That fascinate them so?
I coughed and she looked up at me
And gave her tail a thump
I offered an apology
And scratched her on the rump.
She growled a doggy platitude
(she’s not yet learned to speak).
And with forgiving attitude
She licked me on the cheek.
It's very hard to calculate
The comfort we can find,
The love that we reciprocate
When scratching dog's behind

Awww, this is so cute! Would she let me scratch her?
I read your bio, and found it surprising that someone with your credentials wrote a cute dog poem. I'm glad you did!
