Jay Ran Down The Race

Jay ran down the race
On her sisters Dairy Farm
“He is delightful “,she expressed
Full of ‘The Papillon Charm’

Over the paddock
Under the electric fence
Then through the long grass
Which was lush and dense

She called to her sister
When she heard the splash
“Jay’s in the drain”
She was there in a flash

Through the gate - Along the drain
His predicament - Was now so plain

He could not get out
For the sides were steep
So upon her knees
To the edge she did creep

.....”This way Jay”
Her sister was calm
He was on the other side
Showing little alarm

Suddenly he turned
Towards our voice
At his change of direction
She made a quick choice

Grab him by the tummy
Her sister did advise
Both of us in the drain?
How could this be wise?
So she grabbed his neck
Like an experienced mother cat
Your precious dog she stated
Resembles a drowned rat

Underneath her raincoat
He shivered all the way home
When 'blow dried' his ordeal
One would not of even known

.....The day her Papillon - Had his very first swim
Even now – Makes us both grin
