Prairie Dog City

Prairie Dog City

 

There was a wonderful family

In a neighborhood there good

With everyone happily

Standing when they could

 

They barked at forms and shadows

And sought refuge in their homes

Under cover a little while

Until the ghosts were gone

 

It was a cheerful place to live

As everyone knew the other

And a neighborly call they would give

To communicate with one another

 

Their homes were impressive

With tunnels all around

With the close-knit family

Safe there underground

 

The town was well populated

With extended families

And like bowling pins on their mounds

Were as far as could be seen
