“dogs in jackets”

Mustard up that jacket
for my hot dog.


Two rain jackets,
one purple, one chocolate
Two dry dogs 


dog lies curled in ball
paws tucked under for comfort
on mom's jacket


            All his clothes featured dogs in jackets
                putting him in a unique bracket
                      'til he met Pat
                  clothes covered in cats
           Now they pick out their palettes at Target's

    I’m a mustard, chili and slaw myself.
    I love the dog curled up on mom’s Jacket and the limerick, esp.

    Fun…
    Hubby and I call that retailer Tarjea (Frenchish sound).

    There are day’s I’d like to curl up in a nice warm jacket too!
