NaPoWriMo Day 6: Where to, Buddy?

To the route of endless adventure, you and I (and a bunch of other friends).  :-)

Where to, Buddy?

Tick, tock, tick.
Where do puppies dream?
On beds of kibble,
or on streets of lamps?

Pitter-patter.
Where do puppies tread?
Through shining eyes,
or into snuggly crooks of hearts?

Huff, huff, huff.
Where do puppies run to?
Into fields of color,
or to the rainbow edge of sunny skies?

Sigh, sigh, sigh.
Where do puppies go?
Into the everyday of each day--
only to return
with a soft

--Pitter-patter--
to the sound
of your footsteps
en route
to the water's edge
where a thousand bottles
float
on the shoreline
of dreams.

Hmmm.  Reading what I've just written, it feels like a children's storybook.  Ooooh, now there's an idea.
