Oso
I sit behind the gate
and await
your arrival.
Ears pricked
posture strict.
I can hear you
nearby
so what is the delay?
Do you need a bark
to help you on your way?
And then you appear!
One foot over the gate
almost here!
Ears down
anticipating
no more waiting!
Tail waggling
hooray!
You’re here!
Now we can play!
