Wake up you lazy
dog
A-lying in the
shade!
You are supposed
to guard this porch
Upon which you are
laid!
I know the days
are hot -
I know the days
are long
But you need to be
a-listening
In case someone
comes along!
This porch it is
my haven -
The walkway to my
home,
It's here my
heart's a-longing
No matter where I
roam!
When the sun is
slowing setting
At the end of
every day
I sit upon my
rocker and
All my troubles
melt away.
All around my
wooden porch
Pretty flowers
trail and bloom.
Their perfume
soothes my senses
'Neath a round and
silver moon.
In the evenings I
hear crickets,
In the daytime the
drone of bees
Plus the tinkling
from the wind-chimes
Each time they
catch the breeze.
So - wake up you
lazy dog!
Wake up and come
and bark for me,
Come and greet me
on on this porch -
It's the only
place I love to be!
