Big Dude

He's my protector
He scans the yard like any guard could do
After dark he patrols the fence
He voices his opinion to the coyote across the rail
He sleeps by the door keeping watch over the house
He's as big as any man
Weighing in at 170 pounds
The sun is coming up
His shift is over
He can enjoy himself
He can chase the squirrels, which he'll never catch
Get lots of love and pets
Get secret treats from Mom when she gets her coffee
For a job well done
