Oh Dog, Where Art Thou?

UPDATE 4 p.m. Oct. 15. Dog Came Home!

Out the front door, Mr. Pup-Pup did dash,

Little legs whirring, he was gone in a flash.

The hours went by, yet he did not return,

He's no cold weather dog, when will he learn?

Now a day later, that sure went fast,

Perhaps from a stranger, a net was cast.

Has he survived out there so cold?

Or is he safe in a lap? I haven't been told.

Better with a stranger than frozen on the streets,

Because then, someday, again we could meet.

If you come home, there will be plenty of treats,

And I will rub your ears, tender and sweet.

Then you can bark at the strangers down on the street.

Your stinky old blanket still lies on the couch,

Waiting for you to come home, upon it to crouch.

Your food bowl is full, your water is too,

Looking at them both, how I miss you.

Took you in as a pup, you were small as a can,

Raised you right up, you're the best friend of man.

Now you're full grown, but missing from home,

Come back to me buddy, no longer to roam.
