Milou

I

Front page news: Addition to Murch.

Got a new kid on the block

Not a kid as such 

Goats and billies we've dealt with

We got a puppy!

For what do you do

When it follows you around

And attack fiercely your shoe laces?

You take it home of course

The dog chooses its master

Truth universally acknowledged!

II

A Jack Russell one

Named Milou

All over the place

Already made its mark

Full of energy

Keen to explore around

Bringing laughter and cheers

Playfully chasing a ball

A tissue box, a treasure box

To rip apart

A pen a good teething ring

Puts himself to bed

And forgets all about us.
