Len Gasun Poet Rhyme

In the Grass

Something was moving in the grass
I couldn’t really figure out what it was
It looked like a creature with mustache
I could barely see with my pair of eyeglass

It just kept me guessing and wondering
I just wished it was such a lovely thing
Not something that’s so ugly or terrifying
Poisonous or critter that bites or stings

It never created any single sound
Until my dog went sniffing around
In the grass, I saw movements abound
Looked like it was going to mound

Suddenly my dog barked aloud
So brave like a hero making me proud
But the grass was so thick to shroud
My dog pulled it, my joy reached the clouds

It was an adorable chubby guinea pig
Spots on head made it like wearing a wig
Front paws were holding a green twig
I held it in my arms, I swayed with a jig

Valsa George April 1, 2023 at 8:30 PM So very delightful ! First I doubted it to be a snake and a kind of fear was creeping all over ( I dread seeing snakes). But at the end, what a delightful thing it turned out to be. I enjoyed your dog's timely intervention. Len it all sounds so natural. Lovely poem dear friend. All the Best! Len Gasun April 2, 2023 at 12:07 AM I dread seeing a snake too and I couldn't even eat just after seeing one. After many hours, I can eat again. Thanks a lot for reading my poem, your uplifting words and best wishes my dearest poet friend. Blessings to you always and your writings. Hugs
