Puppies (a silly, silly poem)

your arrival was totally unexpected.
a surprise that delighted us.
how not to be happy with 6 lovely dogs!
you recognize my whistle whereever you are
the way you run is a reason to laugh.
you trust me since the beginning.
every day I meet you at the backyard.
I place myself on the floor,
and you look for the protection of my arms.
we play for a while,
until you fall asleep on my arms.
your breath is soft.
your little bodies are so relaxed.
and I wonder: are you dreaming about something?
what is it that you see in your dreams?
coloues, maybe shapes?
but we cannot keep you.
I have to give you away.
I´m already suffering.
I only hope that you find a nice home.
I´ll miss you so much!
little puppies, I love you.
please my dear puppies, don´t forget me.
I won´t forget you. I promise.
