HELLO, TREE, SAYS THE DOG
by April Halprin Wayland
Hello, Tree.
Thank you for your upright trunk—
it’s fabulous to sniff.
I love that I don’t have to beg,
when I line you up against my leg
and lift.
This is an apostrophe poem, also called a poem of address.
Bruce liked it. 🙂
Eli is chasing a squirrel. Up a tree.
He did not get the squirrel.

A tree-climbing dog who reads books. That’s my kind of canine! Thanks for sharing. :0)
