There Once Was A Basset Named Kirby
Who Dreamed of a Chance in the Derby
He's Constantly in Motion
Trips Like He's Drank a Potion
No Wonder His Nickname is Worby.

Day 2 Haiku Poem

These are my "boys" Hoover and Kirby.
They are my babies and are just over a year old. Having these two is like raising two new children after our human kids left the nest.

Loyal Companion
Eyes That Are Sad and Droopy
Constantly Concerned
