VETERAN DOG TO COCKY PUPPY
by April Halprin Wayland

Take the leash, Kid, take the ride.
Yep—it could be to the vet.
Or maybe waiting in the shade.

Or a romp on the beach.
Heck—it could be a ham bone
after heel-sit-stay.

All within reach, Kid,
if you just
take the leash.

Poetry Prompt:  I love reading a book or a poem with attitude. The speaker has a pose, a point of view; you know that person, you know someone with that exact personality…probably someone in your own family.

It’s your turn. Think of someone with a strong personality–good or not-so-good.  See if you can strike a pose as you write a poem with that person’s voice.
