clever dog
catches the ball
in the sunshine
but races alongside
the house in
shade to re-
turn to Master.
I lean down to
pat and say,
*Clever dog!*
but she is already
up the drive
by the fence
waiting for the
ball to bounce
six throws
and she carries
the ball to
the front door
looking for
the airconditioned
coolness of
indoors.
*
Clever dog!
Clever dog!*
