ELF

                    So gentle, sweet, adorable, this pup
                    Who lies between our heads in bed at night
                    And sleeps till morn, waiting till we get up
                    To start her frolics in the morning light
                    By chasing squirrels when I toss out nuts
                    Into the back yard, shortly after dawn,
                    With Tiggy harassing their fuzzy butts
                    Making them scurry all about the lawn,
                    Until I lure her with a Greenie treat
                    To come back to the house with prospects of
                    A bowl of Royal Canin set to eat,
                    As further evidence of our dear love,
                         Which she has won by being her sweet self,
                        A pup who is part Miki and part elf.
