Alan .S. Jeeves

Heidi and Snoop

A yawn, a stretch, a wake-up

A blink of drowsy eyes.

A sniff, a scratch, a shake-up

It\'s almost time to rise.

A look around the break of day

Is it rain or shine?

It doesn\'t matter anyway

When you\'re a shrewd canine.

 

Off they set at early morn\'

Adventuring about

Here and there a day is born

(Snoop! I hear you shout)

Snoop do this and Snoop do that

(Sit! Snoop you explain)

And then it\'s up from where he\'s sat

And off they go again.

 

Round about the fields and ways

Weaving to and fro

Snoop the canine runs and plays

And puts on quite a show.

As Heidi walks a piece behind

And lets him bound ahead

Snoop the canine soon will find

He\'s ready for his bed.

 

So, he and she are home at last

And Heidi takes a seat

Snoop the canine, fading fast,

Is lying at her feet.

A yawn a stretch a scratch of ear

Collapsing in a heap ~

Now the hour is drawing near

For Snoop to go to sleep.
