"Golden Worries"
Tan and golden hues of hair,
sits upon the onyx chair
Restless and worried eyes,
thinks about a slow demise;
of the bright morning sun,
in which one enjoys a nice cool run
Shifting in the leather seat,
the patient starts to feel the heat
He dangles one leg off the chair,
seemingly without a care
The door slowly opens wide,
the doctor casually walks inside;
to the patient he proceeds
to check upon his tender needs
The golden hued patient stares,
to the heavens and says his prayers;
"Oh heavenly father up above,
the one I so truly love
Let my health be good and strong,
so that it may not be so long;
Before I may leave this room,
that has in the past brought me doom"
Now to the doctor he shifts his eyes,
and to his horror he quickly spies;
The shiny needle he holds strong,
The golden wonders what he did wrong
He braces himself against the chair,
With his long nose up to the air
His crescent eyes shut real tight,
he does not put up a single fight
The doctor pats his golden crown,
and says to him with not a frown
"Now see that was not so bad,
later you will be so glad;
that you came to see your favorite vet,
to get those ears thoroughly checked!"
Once the doctor says goodbye,
the golden retriever gives a sigh
Now his mama waves at him to hurry,
as she says to him, "there now golden see, no worries!"
