Never Enough

I envy our dogs faces
as they crunch their noisy treats.
Chewing with open mouths,
seemingly as loudly as they can.

Their joy is not possible to overlook.
Even before they have finished,
they secretly hope for another.

Last Few Words: ...or maybe not so secretly - LOL!

Hello, Michael,
You've described the joy perfectly. I always admire how they are so joyful with such small gifts.
Thank you!

Dogs are such honest animals...no hidden agenda. I miss having a dog around, and sleeping on the end of my bed!
