It's a Dog's Life

   
	       A spider sang me a song
                  while I chomped on a bone

               It went away, the tune stayed
                   ~ This dog’s not alone

A concise intriguing rhyme. One to muse on. Thank you so much for your comments on charcoal Moon Relish. Howard

I read just yesterday about the number of spiders we unknowingly swallow at night. I may never sleep again :-)

Well observed behaviour of dogs. They are happy with simple things.

Gershon, this is a cute poem. Reminds me of the children's poem "The Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly." Well done. Moon Harp
