As my dear old mum would say.

334 years old, in [[dog years]], and STILL WAITING.
My old mum always told me <br />
“Son, every dog has its day.” <br />
Now in dog years, I am 336 years old, <br />
but I still quietly sit on my mat <br />
& wonder when it will come <br />
& what it will be like <br />
& as the shadows grow long <br />
& the darkness draws in <br />
You see, I have this sinking feeling <br />
that it’s been and gone <br />
& I wasn’t paying attention <br />
& I missed it <br />
I put my head between my paws <br />
& sleep a little more <br />
& dream of mum <br />


There’s time, son, there’s time.
“There’s time, son, there’s time.” <br />
 
That's what she’d say <br />
{{egg}}
and she'd ruffle between my ears <br />
And I'd dream the day away.
