Harry’s a dog that lives on my street
He’s probably got fleas and smells a little like feet.
He’s a basset hound that’s impossibly droopy
His fur is quite matted and eyes are all goopy.
Every day it seems he melts further into the ground
I don’t know if it’s the heat or the breed of this hound.
When I pat his head, his bleary eyes look up
Despite his elderly state, he’s an adorable pup.
He lies on the sidewalk, folds of skin and ears
I swear he’s been there for over a hundred years.
He brightens my day every time I walk by
I’ll plug my nose and always say hi.
This makes me really happy.
