Thrashing through the underbrush,
Leaping over creeks,
Spot has got his sniffy on –
Squirrels are what he seeks!
Posing with a lifted paw,
Sniffing at the breeze,
Then he’s on the run again,
Barking at the trees.
Frantically he dashes ‘round
Howling at his prey…
Doesn’t seem to realize
He scared them all away!
I was watching from the porch.
The chase was spirited
But once an hour had come and gone
I sighed and shook my head.
My dog is quite intelligent
When schmoozing with his master…
But Spot has got a lot to learn
If squirrels are what he’s after.
