Shiloh the Jealous Dog

Steve Cochrane 1955 (Cape)

Rhymed
Whenever Shiloh hears someone
Begin to talk to me,
He quickly comes just like a son
Within our family!

He always gets in front of those
Who want some of my time
Apparently, it's what he chose,
So, in my lap he climbs.

I might be wrong, but it does seem
That jealousy is not
A furry, Shiloh jealous scheme.
With envy Suzi's got!
