A Tale of the Trail -- by Piper

Ok guys, look. Today we decided to take Pi to the nature trail down the road -- one of her most favorite spots. There, she did the most shocking thing ever. To us, anyway. When we got home, she insisted on writing a poem on our blog. She yanked the laptop away with her little paws and there was no stopping her. What can I say? Except that she's insanely cute, witty, and super talented.

We feed her Iams dog food. Not sure if that has anything to do with her majesticness or not. Here ya go -- from the paws of Piper herself:


A Tale of the Trail

Sometimes when I'm bored,
I'll bark & wag my tail
Mama gets my hints..
and takes me to the nature trail!

I'm so excited, I can't stand it
I pull my leash so hard
the forest is so much cooler
than my pitiful backyard

We see pine cones & sticks,
poison ivy & poison oak.
I pull my leash so much
I almost make myself choke!

Photobucket

It's over eighty-five degrees
gosh, could it get any hotter?
I spotted the big lake..
so I went into the water!

Photobucket

I took a little sip
and then on a big whim..
I darted in the water
to go for a nice swim!

Mommy & Daddy were so shocked,
they shouted so loudly with glee!
I paddled around the lake
& said, "Hey guys, look at me!!"

Photobucket

And when I got out of the water
my hair was one big mess
& since I looked so bad
more dirt wouldn't hurt, I guess..

I scruffed around in the mud
boy, I was over the moon!
I hope Mom & Dad
take me back to the nature trail soon!!!!
