Flash: The Wiry Whippet (2)

   
   "Flash:  The Wiry Whippet (2)"
   
We all make mistakes, yet have treasures buried,
But dogs generally don't get married;
Regardless, I had a bone that I loved, especially its lamb-like flavor
That made me a lover--not a hater,
Yet when the Basset Hound named Cooter came from across the street,
Telling me the kids were planning a Halloween trick--not treat,
I felt depressed, wanting candy to eat;
Thus, I listened to Cooter and his insightful ears,
Which heard the rumors that adolescents were going to make my Master Henry have great fears;
Alas, I howled in melancholy but invented my own conclusion,
Which was:  Henry would be protected by my sublime intrusion
Into any plan
That would my Master damn.
