Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Words by the Bank

Dysfunctional family we're not.

I'm watching Dad and the kids fish.

Besotted beyond trout be sought

To take the bait as hopeful wish.

Internal surroundings 'round Mom

In the house making marmalade

For the first time but keeping calm,

As it's a weird translucent shade.

One truth for me is not obscure.

These loving folks do sure treat me

More than just a pet to ensure

Great fondness for my family.

As any reader here detects,

This dog's vocab is quite complex.
