Dog Psalm #85

This Easter

let there be gratitude and feasting.

Indoor Grass

This inside grass is for me? Really?
I've been looking and looking outside and can't find any.

Thank you. Oh, thank you.

Thanksgiving

Let there be gravy and community.

Let there be laughter and music.

Let there be feasting and grazing

and generous table scrap giving.

I am grateful for kindness, comfort and care.

Grateful for naps in the big comfy chair.

Neighborhood Buffet

Garbage day is my favorite day,
the neighborhood is one big buffet.

I hear the drag of cans and tubs
announcing a feast even picky pugs could love.

There's chicken bones and month old pate.
Don't hold me back. Get outta my way!

Like any good hound
I like my chow found
sweating and nasty
served on the ground.

On happy feet I hit the street
ignoring the person at the end of my leash
nostrils flairing in search of treats

Like Julia said,
"Bon Appetite!"
