Magpie 128

Said the dog to the man,
"Can we go for a walk?"
Said the man to the dog,
"I'm too busy. I can't.
I must clean up that wall -
Someone's written in chalk."
Said the dog (in a huff),
"Time you watered that plant!"



With thanks to Tess at Magpie Tales for the picture

    Frances . . looks to me as if the dog has been watering the plant! Yours fun as usual. I like laconic dogs that take the huff.

    First things first. Chalk on the wall seems less important to me, too, than the living things...:)

    Thanks, everyone ( though not one of my best. Still pretty spaced out after my accident).
