Eskimo, Poodle bred twice,
Eski-Poo-Poo, named, Frosty,
Frizzy, woolly, snowy fur,
Inky dot eyes, large ebony button nose,
Short, floppy ears,
Four little legs, Lilliputian paws.
Doggie K-mart greeter,
Wet, rosy tongue, panting enthusiastically,
His bird-size heart races,
Stubby tail wags like a metronome on steroids.
A berserk friendly gene adheres
Frosty glue to arm, leg, foot, slipper or shoe.
“Play ball?” he invites,
Squeaky toy thrown,
“Fetch!”
Alpha dogged into single paw guarding,
Challenges owner to toy possession.
Toddler photocopying via two hind legs prancing,
Shows off with twirling pirouettes.
Trampoline poodle legs create
Lamb-like, four-legged loftiness,
Boing! Boing! Boing!
Dreamstate, fluffy puppy counting o’er fencing rails.
When scolded, “Grrr…” is his witty repartee.
Territorial canine marking sires window critter vigils,
Trespassing penalty: ballistic barking,
Leviathan disappointment: cats reject his friendship, sulks.
Plays, sleeps, eats, sniffs,
Pasture frolics: 'Merry Dung Rolling'
Rebreed mutation: Eski-Poo-Poo-Poo:
Frosty, Malodorous, Stinky Poo!
