. As always In the back yard Our overzealous dog Runs to the fence Each time wagging his tail A car passes by The cat On the porch steps At equal watch although With seeming indifference While squirrels collect acorns Across the road The birds at the feeder Drop more seeds than they take So the sparrows as well Are able to get a meal It’s just another day In the life we didn’t have The smells of supper From the stove . |

well done! [though this one hits rather too close to my 'real life']: "It’s just another day In the life we didn’t have" applause for this 'penning!' |

I wish I had a dog next door that just wagged his tail at passing cars...that one barks at his shadow...a little dachshund I usually love animals and ordinary days but no more  to your poem |
