It never stays put.
*harrumph*
My dog runs it off:
Chasing the Dark
My dog goes out into the night, at the end of every day,
Where the first thing that she does is bark, to chase the dark away.
Of course, she’s not afraid of it, just wants to give the warning,
That it had better pack its stuff, and clear out by the morning.
So then she goes to restful sleep, content that all is right,
And when she checks on things again, there’s nothing left of night!
She seems to be more happy then, it seems to thrill her heart,
To know that darkness ran away, and she has done her part!
I haven’t tried explaining, the way things really are,
Besides, I like the cheerfulness, of my bright morning star!
She is a useful watchdog, she watches Day and Night.
And anything she doesn’t like, just barks it out of sight.
