A short rhymed poem

I'm Not Diggin' Your Digging!

by Debra White




I'm finding my attention drawn

right to the middle of the lawn -


A mucky crater in the ground

and next to it, a guilty hound.


Our spaniel, Molly, loves to dig.

She's dug a hole (it's kinda big.)


This hole could cause a trip or fall...


"Not good, my girl. Not good at all,


and what an eyesore. Look at it!

I'm not impressed, Moll, not one bit.


This excavation's quite a crime.

Those puppy eyes won't work this time."

I really wish she wouldn't dig...
