Sweep





Sweep was a small Yorkshire terrier, his colouring was black and tan with a few light patches, he was very pretty with large brown eyes and rather large ears, one stood up and one flopped over. He was a cheeky little dog always pinching the washing and taking it into the garden or hiding it in his box. Mum spent all her time collecting things up that sweep had taken, but sometimes mum would wonder how sweep had managed to get some of the things, he had collected, as she was sure she had put them on the kitchen work top out of sweeps way. One night when mum came down stairs to get a glass of water ,she couldn’t believe what she was seeing she rubbed her eyes to make sure, sweep was hovering just above the worktop, his ears were both up and glowing in the dark like the wings of an angel. Mum had caught him he was just about to take a set of ear phones when he spotted mum watching him, he gently landed on the floor and went into his box ,mum went back to bed. The next morning mum couldn’t make up her mind if she had dreamed the whole thing, she went around collecting up sweeps collection of goods, still wondering if it was true or just her mind playing tricks on her . That night she put sweep to bed in his box and hid outside the kitchen door. Mum had nearly fallen asleep when she saw a small light flicker, she peeked in to the kitchen and saw sweep and his glowing ears coming up from the floor, towards were she had left her son (sonny’s) box hat, sweep went over to the hat and tried to pick it up, but it was to heavy  he nudged it with his head until the hat fell from the side, but sweep flew underneath the hat and it landed on his head.  Mum made sweep jump when she laughed out loud at sweep wearing sonny’s box hat ,with his glowing ears sticking out each side, when sweep saw mum laughing he gave her a big smile, mum was so shocked , sweep quickly few back in the box wearing his hat. Mum decided sweep was an angel dog and made shore she put everything away before she went to bed every night , but she could often here sweep flying round the kitchen having fun.
