At fifteen he’s a picky eater
Mackie’s a slob but Cleo is neater
All three have to be fed
As soon as I leave the bed

A home cooked meal for their delight
Sometimes they will growl and fight
For each morsel is a prize
In each of my puppies eyes

Scooby treats are their desserts
Don’t touch Seamie’s he’s old but alert
He cannot see or hear them come near
But he can smell them when they appear

Cleo likes to wait to last
Before starting on her repast
Mackey eats all that is left behind
Slurping and slopping but I don’t mind

With Seamus I often sit and wait
Often times to work a bit late
He’ll push at the bowl with his nose
And paw at the floor with his toes

After a fashion he’ll decide to eat
Hoping to find some sweet sausage meat
He’s the old boy, but a puppy too
Without him I don’t know what to do

After that there’s cats to feed
Then the Parrot to finish the deed
Feeding the pack is never a chore
For these are the babies that I adore

Cute poem We have a bunch of animals too. Amazing how much we can love the furry/feathered guys.
