Paws for a while

Sunday morn lie in
Bored puppies ate cardboard box
“Get up, Mum and Dad!”

Release of the hounds
Eight paws pounce and faces licked
Trampolining fun

“Get up, Mum and Dad!
There’s a shredded box to clear
and we need walkies.”

Cerulean Skies

Cerulean skies rise above peacock and sapphire seas
Milky washes lap on southern shores

Vega and Haiku: Bath time double

Vega: “Dad! We had a bath!”
Haiku: “And a shower, too.”
Vega: “Mum’s absolutely soaking.”
Haiku: “She is more wetter than us!”
Vega: “We were very good.”
Haiku: “We got treats after.”

They call it puppy love? Madness!

Sleep deprivation
So begins a weary day
Herein Madness lies

Walkus – For Dad

Vega: “Dad! We made new friends!”
Haiku: “There was Saffy and Basil…”

Haiku: “He looks like a small lion”
Vega: “He remembered us!”

Vega: “Saffy barked at us!”
Haiku: “Basil bared his teeth at us!”
Vega: “Gunner… I’m in lurve…”
