My Shih-Tzu's Eyes Are
Nothing Like the Sun My Shih-Tzu's eyes are nothing like the sun; They google at me from her snub-nosed head; If mud be brown, she'll tromp in it for fun; If paws are dirty, she'll jump onto my bed. I have seen show dogs, brown and white, But no such dog have I seen for weeks; And in most gym bags is there more delight Than in the breath that from my Shih-Tzu reeks. She eats too much, and well I know That she weighs more than 14 pounds; She tries to jump up on the couch although My fat dog, when she falls, thuds on the ground. And yet, by heaven, I find my Shih-Tzu as rare As any dog with a topknot in her hair. |
