Ken the Pug

“I’ve always enjoyed spending time with dogs. Unlike many humans, they always accept me and help me find a smile.”

I wrote this poem in answer to the following prompts:

Ken the Pug

I am a kenspeckle pug
A small breed of dog
I adore the fireside rug
You master, are a sofa hog

Now, I don’t wish to be rude
But stop the lies you make
You fob me with stinky tinned food
Then sit scoffing prime steak

You say we’re going walkies
In the woods, we’re going to play
Then hold your phone doing talkies
My patience is beginning to fray

You sell my favourite squeaky toy
Then bring home that meowing brat
Thought I was your special boy
Hope it’s not that skinny rat

So, I wear my sweater and glasses
This serious as a lost glove
Please get off your lazy asses
And give this pug some love
