Spring used to be an exciting time for me - I hate the cold! But, since having dogs, I find myself wishing the cold weather would last a little bit longer, so we wouldn't have the mud to contend with. So, that's what really says "spring" to me - MUD!
When you're finished reading my story, head over to Susanna's blog and read the others - there are some really great stories!!
Tell-Tail Signs of Spring
Winter brings both cold and snow.
Still, I’m sad to see it go.
Once the frozen ground warms up,
Once the frozen ground warms up,
life gets messy, with a pup.
He’ll come bounding through the door.
Muddy paws across the floor.
Black dots splattered on the walls.
He’ll come bounding through the door.
Muddy paws across the floor.
Black dots splattered on the walls.
Murky puddles down the halls.
Up the stairs and down again.
Paw prints leading to the den.
On the couch, then quickly off.
Stops for munchies at his trough.
On the bed that’s not yet made.
Gives a shake. The sheets get sprayed.
Dog-shaped mud begins to dry,
Like a scene from CSI!
Try to wipe him - no such luck.
He starts wagging. Better duck!
Just like clockwork, every year,
Tell-tail signs that spring is here!
