Good Doggie

The doggie did his duty
And he earned his master's praise:
“You’re such a good good doggie!”
But his eyes began to glaze…

For he only did what Nature
Had intended him to do –
Nothing special or heroic,
Yet perhaps that doggie knew…

That his owner’s pure excitement
Over excrement was weird
‘Cause each time he had to go,
It made him more and more endeared.

To dogs, we humans are bizarre
For while the pets are pooping,
Their owners dole out compliments
The whole time they are scooping.
