Stormy Weather

Hello NLGA Dog Blog Readers!

Is your greyhound afraid of storms? This week's poem explores what it feels like to be thunder shy from the perspective of a Greyt!





Stormy Weather
By Katie Gilstrap

Even though
I am tenacious,
Stormy weather
Makes me anxious.

When I catch
A whiff of rain,
My sense of courage
Starts to wane.

Vicious gusts
Of wind outside
Invoke in me
A need to hide

While lightning bolts
And heavy hail
Create a quiver
In my tail.

I don't like to
Be alone
With all the creaks
And all the groans,

So when the thunder
Starts to clap,
I'll seek some solace
On your lap.
