National Poetry Writing Month - April 19, 2014

Despite it being a Saturday afternoon/evening and the weather being fairly nice the day was pretty mellow. We stopped a couple of folks from a known drug house but overall it was uneventful. It makes for little inspiration for work, but I did see some dogs playing and that always makes me smile.

Pups On Parade

Seeing them prance and pounce

On the sidewalks and in the parks

Always makes me happy

Seeing the Pups on Parade

Chasing sticks and balls and toys

Slobbering and scratching

And rolling in the grass

Happy Pups on Parade

Watching them play with their people

I wish I was home with ours

To enjoy her antics as she gallops around

Our beautiful Pup on Parade

I bide my time and end my shift

Heading home to the house

With wife and dog

And hopefully see our Pup on Parade
