Dog Tracks
Dog tracks on the patio
Who was it that made these marks
Muddy prints, hound dog for sure
Played out in the muddy slough
Now he's here, skulking about
Leaving tracks for me to clean
He doesn't care, clean his feet
They won't fit my broom handle

You can guess more about this dog if you wish.

You cannot teach an old dog to respect a patio (or maybe no dog)... Just bring out the broom and sigh.
