Maggie and Tippy

Like a small statue Maggie sits on her rug Staring at the squirrel Her squirrel friend Tippy His tail is white at the tip She is intense watching It won't be long before She stretches at the door Excited to chase Tippy up the tree Then he will look down To laugh at her This is how Tippy's day Always ends every day Until tomorrow Tippy plays this game Teasing Maggie never ends

What a sweet poem, Darlene! This reminds me of my two pets, Smokey the cat and Tommy the tortoise; they chase each other a lot, but they really are good friends. Regards // paul

I like those names... Maggie and Tippy... Pot Hound Willy, would enjoy chasing Tippy... I don't think Maggie would take to kindly to Timothy Brown, he's much too mean and witty.... Thanks for sharing... Have a lovely day

Hello Arturo,I sense that you are right. Maggie does not like mean dogs. Thank you and good morning to you and have a nice day.
