Huck
is
a
DOG
of wise countenance & mirth
wears a waistcoat & shades
and
doesn't go to church
he listens to jazz
as he chews a bunnies worth
while
pondering terriers, thunder &
this big blue marbled earth
Huck
is
a
DOG
of lineage refined
stays up 'til midnight drinking red wine
prefers popcorn & cake-pops any hour of the day
far too much a pirate
to ever
really
play
Huck
is
a
DOG
pearly white as hailstones
smart as a monkey-business-suit
and
fond of hugs, squirrels & rawhide bones
Huck is a DOG
and
I LOVE him deep
he trusts me with his books & treasure
so
his
secrets
I must keep
