Part of the Fun

Part of the Fun

A Poem by Rita L. Sev
"

Companion animals - never a dull moment.

"
Walking through my living room
I step on rubber squeakers 
And in the yard I often find
Excrement on my sneakers
Kibble bits and flying fur
And many things more vile
Like wet hairballs and slobbered socks
And half-chewed food with bile
I know they don't mean any harm...
I truly do believe that
Just part of the fun of living 
With a dog and with a cat
