Attention to Detail

He was never much of a dare devil

He always kept his head on the level

Can’t remember a time he took a risk

He took a walk daily, often quite brisk.

 

 

You might even say he kept his nose to the ground

He was undeniably cognizant of all those around.

He believed fervently in all of the laws of safety

He was determined simply to be all he could be.

 

It is absolutely inexplicable to explain what happened to him

The story in its telling is certainly much too graphic and grim

Though he crossed the tracks safely, he soon began to wail

This dog uncharacteristically forgot to pay attention to de tail.

Doggone it, Creative Riters Corner has more "tails" to tell.
