Mr. Lucky's Chronicles

Lisa R. Strong
A buzzer is sounding;
It is barely light outside;
My mistress groans;
Then tumbles out of bed;
She is in a hurry;
There is not much time for me;
Before I know it, she is leaving;
And I am on my own;
To explore forbidden places;
Oops, I just knocked over;
One of her favorite dolls;
She will be upset;
But by then I won't remember;
I think that I will sleep on her bed;
Her scent gives me comfort;
And I won't miss her so much;
I will sleep the day away;
Until she comes home;
Then she will let me have a drink;
Sipping water from the bathroom sink;
She will shower and settle down;
Wonderful smells come from the kitchen;
But she always feeds me first;
Then she will sit at her computer;
Reading, writing, and playing games;
And I will beg for her attention;
With a hard rubbing;
Or a gentle nibble on her bare ankle;
She will reach down and pet me;
Or give my ears a scratch;
Sometimes my momma;
Is too tired or hurt to play;
So when she goes to bed;
I will be with her;
To give her comfort;
We take care of each other;
Because we are best friends
