Make a Poem My Fur-Babies

Make A Poem Contest Sponsor: Shadow Hamilton I seem to keep punishing Bo my naughty Golden Retriever, He sneaks and lurks and is suspicious with Rosie our sassy cat, My daughter says she caught them snuggling, I don’t believe her, There’s no way Bo would be so gentle because he’s a silly brat. Sometimes Bo can be generous sharing the family blanket, Rosie gets irritable because God forbid she kindly share, Although they are a nuisance, without them I wouldn’t make it, When the night is over it’s cute to watch them play over there. Rosie needs a new scratchy play house filled with kitty catnip, Bo needs an absurd dog house to bask in the sun outdoors, They both are so rambunctious especially when Rosie snips, But at times they play excellent and I couldn’t ask for more. My hubby is an engineer so he decided to build them houses, It can get costly so he emits the second level to Rosie’s palace, That darn cat was snooping around and found a tiny mouse, But I could see that in her eyes she wasn’t showing any malice. I appreciate my animals so I order an iota of yummy treats, Orange and blue dog biscuits and tasty tuna filled pellets, “Knock Knock!” on the door and they are so genial and sweet, The neighbor says they’re admirable and that they seem angelic. Yesterday my favorite purple iris was dug up by mischievous Bo, He left a slanted kink and dragged it around the muddy backyard, Even though they can be disobedient my heart will never let go, My sweet fur-babies are so special, for I shall never disregard. These 21 words were used: Absurd, appreciate, admirable cat, caught, costly, emits, engineer, excellent, golden, generous, genial iris, iota, irritable, kindly, knock, kink, orange, over, order This poem took me 15 minutes to write Date Written: July 8, 2016

This contest was such a challenge, and you nailed it Laura !!! What a great job! By the way, we have had several golden retrievers over the years, (still my favorite breed of dog !!) So loving are they....our last one was named Shilo.....and he more than 'tolerated' our pesky cat Ashley. He was so patient with her antics. Each one of our Goldens also died of cancer. I feel your heart reading what you have said about yours. So sorry! :(

oh my, what a job to get all the words to fit but you DID it and you did an excellent job of it. Hey, your doggie looks like mine, somewhat. It's golden retriever? But it has the coloring of our dog!!! (supposedly a mixed australian shepherd/border collie, but I believe we got lied to. It looks more to me like a Texas cow dog!!)

thanks Andrea :) No that's not a pic of my golden, I wanted to find a cuter pic of a dog with a cat too lol my golden Bo is dying of cancer so we are hoping he sticks around longer than the vet said. He was Karen's baby so we adopted him after she died, so he's a special guy...:)-luloo
