Doggone Dog-Here Dog Days

Dog days

For dogs

Cat days are every day

To cats

Winter might have dog days

But the famous days are

Summer

When it’s late

And there are days of heat

And humidity

When dogs are famous for

Lying down,

Stretched out on boards

Of Southern porches

While the humans

Sip up lemonade

And talk

About the weather

x

n.b. for humans

x

Keep water close by

And bring them in from

The heat

When you go in

Keeping in mind

That they’re your friends

And mine
