I can see you there, behind your desk
from my chair.  I have to curl up in
a little ball to fit, but I don't care.
I'm just happy to come to work with
you each day.  I get lonely when you’re
away from me for too long.  Don’t get
me wrong, I'd rather be on the couch
at home, but this beats being alone
paws down.

Mmm, dozing off beneath the heat ducts'
warm breeze and... Jingling!  Is that keys?
Is it time to go?  Let's go daddy, let's go!
Jump to the floor, spinning circles through
the office door at the sight of you
standing from your chair.  Running laps around
the place you watch me, a laughing smile,
your face brightening at my silliness.
Off clicks the overhead's cool white glare,
and out we go into the brisk winter air.

You open my truck door wide, and of course
I leap inside with the grace of a
steeplechase horse clearing the highest fence.
I like to keep my legs in back and
my front paws on the console, my boxy
frame filling the hole between the bucket seats.
It's the proper place for a co-pilot to be,
even though you keep telling me you
can’t see anything in the rear view mirror.

I’ll watch out the window till
We turn onto our street.  I can’t
Wait to get home, I’m ready to eat!
I’ll finish My supper and
you’ll let me outside to chase away
the squirrels and rabbits that hide
under the bushes by the fence.  Don’t they know
this is my yard?  I’ve marked It as mine,
it isn’t that hard understand, is it?
I’ll bark at the door and you’ll let me
inside, wiping my paws to keep the floor clean.
I’ll trot on into the living room,
where I’ll hop onto the couch
and groom myself before drifting off
into contentedness dream.
