For Seamus
O galumphing fool! You joyful pup!
Your cocked to side ears
And click clack claws
Fill our house
Your ever sniffing nose
And beard dripping from
Your water dish
Frustrate my patience
Out, dumb mutt! You miserable mongrel!
Your big brown eyes
Stare back abashedly
Unaware of trespasses
Your regal posture
Lying there on the sofa
Smoothes my wrinkled nerves
I bestow again my good graces
