Poodle Piddle Puddles

Our home is a large house
crammed with too many
possessions and I feel
drained of energy after
dusting it all, like an
ill-paid custodian of
family treasures. Finally,
the job is done for yet
another week's interval
and so is the day.  I
complete the effort on
hands and knees, washing
floors. Everything, in
this brief moment, looks
gleaming fresh and quite
satisfactory until I realize
the gleam on the floor
appears to resemble a
rather large puddle. Quite
evidently a piddle-puddle,
and as I go off to look for
our adorable, prized and
beloved dog, I wonder, idly,
how a toy poodle could be
blessed with such a
capaciously leaky bladder.
