Seren Roberts Poet Rhyme

Family Visit

My home was like a madhouse
Sister and brother in law came to stay
Bringing with them  2 boxers and a terrier
Tilly* thought it was xmas day

She is an old lady but  you wouldn't  think so
She and Boris a terrier were racing here and there
Was like she had a rocket up her butt
She is 34 kg he a mere 10  an unlikely pair

Silence reigns again cos home they have gone
I vacuumed the floor and steamed them
Cos half of the garden mud appeared upon
All evidence of fun times and utter mayhem

Its great to have visitors i must agree
The chaos it causes adds to the fun
Too much to eat , to many cups of coffee
Next time hooray, it will be their home,



*Tilly is my 9 year old rescue Boxer who is vastly overweight.
   Boris is a Westie x  a year old .

Andrea Dietrich February 20, 2013 at 10:20 PM this is such a cute story, Seren. It's wonderful to have visitors. I remember when I had my little Eskimo dog. He was so hyper. If I had had a relative try to bring another dog into the house with that over protective dog of mine (so territorial he was) it would have been a catastrophe. Anyway, your family sounds like great fun!! Seren Roberts February 21, 2013 at 5:14 AM Well Tilly doesnt really like small dogs she puts Boris in his place then are fine friends.

David Williams February 20, 2013 at 2:35 PM Seren it sounded a bit chaotic, fun but noisy...David Seren Roberts February 21, 2013 at 5:13 AM it was chaotic plus lol. but the dogs all get on, poor tilly she can hardly walk after they go back, her legs arent so good, she is an old lady, that thinks she is a puppy when other dogs here.

David Fisher February 18, 2013 at 5:14 PM What a fun way to describe their visit. I wonder if they'll have a story on the Soup after you visit! Haha. Seren Roberts February 18, 2013 at 5:21 PM hehehe possibly, Hey wait a minute I am so quiet what on earth could they say
