My Dog Brook Poem by Kevin Seales

I'm here in my home
As weak as a mouse
No fault of my own
With no food in the house

My mom is out working
And my dad can't be found
I hear someone lurking
So I don't make a sound

I hide with a knife
And I must be brave
For this is my life
That I must save

To my bedroom from the hall
A short shadow apears
It's two feet tall
With pointy little ears

I cracked the closet door
To get a better look
And what do I see on my floor
My dog Brook
