Dusty

Dusty is sleep nodding
Whilst Mark he is talking
Dreaming of meadows and sweet hay

Sagely agreeing
With what Mark is saying
Dusty will always have his say

Children are smiling
Their time they are whiling
Dusty really makes their day

Smiling and kissing
They don't know what they're missing
When they step out of his way

All together standing
While presents he is handling
Dusty, they all want him to stay

Children gently attending
Their lives Dusty's mending
Their parents stand near and pray

Lovingly teaching
His eyes so beseaching
Dusty rounds them like cattle gone astray

His show now is ending
So to his fans Dusty's sending
A dork grin and a final big NEIGH!!!!!

Taken as a screen capture off a video posted by Mark Peterson (see his and Dusty's website) on his facebook stream Mark and Dusty. I've written a number of poems over the last few years about Dusty who is a real character with a capital "C".
