Motherly Love!

These crazy daily expeditions! As mama & puppy try to escape These tiny black suckers... Or should I say "Mosquitos" instead I try to avoid the path... That are lined with bushes & shrubs... For lately it seems the park Is inhabited more by them; And less by us! The leash though seems in my command! Yet! My baby makes the call... And off he'll take the right-turn Into this "crazy-insect-hole!" Oh! No it ain't a quick business either... For each bush needs to be thouroughly checked... Before squatting on the "Chosen one!"; that often makes me wonder... (almost like sitting on a commode) "Is he truly a dog or a human instead!" Though the body feels 'blissfully-light!' The mind is crazily trying to fight! As his face and neck is stippled around...by these... "Bumbled-size-mosquito-flies!" And then the mom (me) has to take Complete Charge! And no there's nothing "Zen-like", In the need of the hour! A Swish around with the leash Below the tummy...beneath the tail Up & down...and at every "Imaginable place!" That one can think! Yet! The mosquitoes seem to outsmart us...as though they've dipped their legs in glue... And the way they...

'Disappear & Reappear', it gives me the jitters "Of A Sci-Fi-Movie!" Thats bound to doom!" Maybe in this grand-scheme of things... These tiny pin heads too have a place to be... For sure "God ain't crazy!" To place both humans & mosquitos "Together, to live in perfect harmony!" And yet once again I tell my baby. "Coco! We aren't gonna come by EVER this way!" And yet I know for sure! I would be doing the same thing all over... For he sure knows how to get things done his way! . I've been trying my best to avoid going to the park lately, as it seems like a insect-hole, but after a couple of days of walking on the concrete pathway lined up with buildings, coco has made sure that no matter how crazy this all may seem...we have to visit the park, atleast once. .
