A Ponder Moment

It's nice just lazing out here in the sun. I'm getting on in years, so they tell me. Touching 50[6 really] and hoping for a few more. My brother, Levi, like me, was adopted. He's half my age but I'm still as nippy. Young 'un, Eli, now he is fast, hard to keep up with. All 3 of us are adopted into this family. Oh , I'm Lexi by the way. My bro' Levi was found abandoned and taken in. Young 'un, Eli, a right little tearaway! We all live in luxury here and we know it. We have more than enough to eat and treats too. We sleep and play to our hearts content. We have all the love and tender care we need. We go to the doctors regular for our check ups. There was a time we all had to go but didn't want to. The less said about those memories the better. Ouch! We have our own hairdresser, who makes us look great. Everyone who comes to the house gets a warm welcome. You won't see us wandering, because we are cared for. If you see us out and about, come and say hello. There are many others just like us but are locked up. They would love you to visit too and maybe adopt them. We all need somebody to love and to be loved by. So it's time to say goodbye and thanks for reading our note. Love from Lexi, and Levi and Eli the 4 legged members of The Timperley Family. Not a poem , more of a muse from another angle. © Dave Timperley February 2016
