The Couch

by Ami (Gypsie) Offenbacher-Ferris

The couch is your home

and there you both sit

or lay close together

here in our small home

Once dinner is done

a big stretch

and some yawns – it’s back

to your cushiony throne

A noise from outside

gets you up with a start

off to the door you run

hoping for romp and for fun

It’s that nice delivery man

with a nod and a smile

he’s delivering the box full of food

toys and new chewy socks

So true what I’m saying today

these two beasts once playing

are now curled up here at my feet the two loves

of my life make my life pure delight
