“There’s two dogs next door…”
the one is playful, happy, content, quiet and energetic
his owner takes him for runs and walks and outdoor time
she plays with him and is a friend
the other dog barks night and day;
and when she’s home I don’t see it get out, much
I hope I miss its walks, hikes, playing
but I don’t think I can miss them all.
Inside it stays, full of energy
worked up, lonely, without company
a dog’s life should be simple and grand
it’ll walk, sit, stay, stand
ourselves to be available and kind.
If you own a dog, be honest: which one is yours?
