OUR DOGS AT SHORE, BY OCEAN
CAVORTING,
RUNNING,
ECSTASY !
THEY COME AND
THROW THEMSELVES
AT ME,
AND WILD IMPLORE
THE BALL ONCE MORE
TO TOSS IT OUT TO SEA
GO FETCH !
RETRIEVE !
THEIR REVELRY
CAN SCARCE
CONTAIN
WITHIN THEIR FRAMES,
AND JOYOUS BARKS
BRING OUT THE GRINS
OF US AND OTHERS
WATCHING THEM,
LIKE THEIR PALS
THE DOLPHIN POD
AT OUR OWN BEACH,
THEY GAZE AND NOD
AND KNOW THEM WELL,
OUR BOY DOGS,
AND JOIN THEM THERE
AND WE, AS ONE,
AMONG THE SKIES
THE THRILLING WAVES,
THE RUSHING SWELLS,
THE SHUFFLED AIR,
OUR SUNNY’S EYES
MAKE US HIS SLAVES,
AND HAPPINESS
HAS NEVER COME
IN SUCH HUGE,
OVERWHELMING SUM !
