Word prompt : I tried to say goodbye – written in response to Michelle’s prompt at her sites Putting My Feet in the Dirt & Her Writing Haven.
I tried to say goodbye today
But you wagged your tail and barked
And followed me as I set off
And chased me through the park
So back I walked and took you home
This time I would ensure
the wife who I’d left home in bed
Would all the gates secure
“You’ll not believe just who got out!”
I shout and summarise
The story of our dogs escape
But oh to my surprise…
It seems my pooch has helped me out
My wife is not alone
It seems he’s not the only one
Who rather loves a bone.
I have neither a dog nor a promiscuous wife by the way, just in case you wondered. 🙂
