To Flush, My Dog

To Flush, My Dog

Leap! thy slender feet are bright,
Knowing that when light is gone
Either side demurely
Up thou leapest with a spring,
Therefore to this dog will I,
Kindling, growing larger,
Leaning from my Human.
This dog only, crept and crept
Blessings on thee, dog of mine,
Who her own true faith has run
Pretty collars make thee fine,
Of thy silver-suited breast
Leap! thy broad tail waves a light,
Of thy body purely.
Down his dewlaps sloping, --
And thy feast-day macaroons
Next a languid cheek that slept,
Beam and breeze resigning;
Leap! those tasselled ears of thine
No flys buzzi九-九-藏-書ng wake thee up,
Tears are in my eyes to feel
Haply in these drooping ears
Other dogs in thymy dew
Give I back more love again
Thou who lovest greatly.
Shining out from all the rest
With a love that answers thine,
Silken coverlid bestead,
Sunshine help thy sleeping!
But of thee it shall be said,
Full of prank and curveting,
Thou art made so straitly,
Underneath my stroking hand,
Flash all over into gold
Little ist to such an end
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Watched within a curtained room
Round the sick and dreary.
Loving fellow-creaturread.99csw.come!
Day and night unweary,
This dog only, waited on,
Often man or woman,
Is my benediction said
Nevermore, to pat thee
Nuts lie in thy path for stones,
Set for drinking deep in.
After, -- platforming his chin
Flow thy silken ears adown
In that chamber died apace,
In a tender trouble.
Sturdy stoppers keep from thee
Of all good and all delight
With my hand upon thy head,
And if one or two quick tears
And this dog was satisfied
When the sleek curls manifold
Love remains for shining.
Or a sigh came double,
Like a ladys ringlets brown,
To Flush, My Dog九-九-藏-書
Through thy lower nature,
Which he pushed his nose within,
Than dogs often take of men,
Canopied in fringes;
Come out! praying from the door, --
Loving friend, the gift of one
Sharing in the shadow.
Down their golden inches
Therefore and for ever.
Downy pillow take thy head,
Till the sunshine striking this
Other dogs of loyal cheer
That I praise thy rareness;
Dropped upon his glossy ears
Startled eyes of hazel bland
Little canst thou joy or do,
Be my benediction said
Pleasures wag on in thy tail,
With a burnished fulness.
Flicker strangely, fair and fine
Where no九-九-藏-書 sunbeam brake the gloom
Cologne distillations;
Render praise and favor:
If a pale thin hand would glide
Other dogs may be thy peers
Gentle fellow-creature!
Darkly brown thy body is,
Call him now to blither choice
No man break thy purple cup
Tenderly not scornfully,
Blessing needs must straiten too, --
This dog only, watched in reach
Alchemise its dullness,
Mock I thee, in wishing weal? --
Up the woodside hieing;
Only loved beyond that line,
Sunny moor or meadow;
Hands of gentle motion fail
Turn to daily rations!
On the palm left open.
This dog watched beside a bed
And this gread.99csw.comlossy fairness.
Tracked the hares and followed through
Up he sprang in eager haste,
With my hand upon his head,
Bounded at the whistle clear,
Yet be blessed to the height
This dog, if a friendly voice
Leaping like a charger.
Or a louder sighing.
Roses, gathered for a vase,
Up against me leaping.
Pervious to thy nature;
Whiskered cats arointed flee,
Than such chamber-keeping,
Fawning, fondling, breathing fast,
Presseth backward as before,
Yet, my pretty, sportive friend,
Of a faintly uttered speech
Sugared milk make fat thee!
Better than his kind will do
And because he loves me so,
