Those Eyes, Those Eyes, Those Loving Eyes

Published by Family Friend Poems May 1, 2024 with permission of the Author.

I see you standing there.
I feel your eyes on me.

I resume my tasks, but there you are.
"Would you please just let me be?"

"Go fetch your leash and favorite toy."
It's time to go outside.

My chores are never finished.
Some say I am merely lagging.

But he has won and won again.
We stroll with tail wagging!
