Salford, 4th March 2021
You had him at “Hello”
scampering from his favourite spot in the house
where mum or dad had given him his lunch
and he’s wrapped up in his warm blanket
he’s waited for an age
to tell you what fun he’s had
chasing balls in the garden or playing with his chew-toy
but now you’ve come through the door
he’s just happy sat on your lap
and sat content with his friend
