My Special Child's Pets

Dogs
antics delightful
feasting midst chicken bones
waiting to be caressed

Cats
cheerful meows
satisfied with dinner
toward sweet dreams

Love birds
couple crooning
disturbed with greetings
to fly freely they wish

Monkeys
monkeyrium in room
cuddly apes and baboons
staying as behaved bedmates
 
Dinosaurs
displayed rhinoceros 
hoping to roam 
yet imprisoned in child’s domain

Stuffed Animals
serene zoo
sweet partnership with mankind 
possible around my son’s world

How sweet Beata! Your little boy has quite the array of beloved pets in his make-believe zoo :) This is so adorable!

Dear Beata, your light verse is charming! What a joy to read as I imagine this delightful scene through the magic of your vibrant imagery. I especially adored "Stuffed Animals/serene zoo" - ingenious! A wonderful menagerie of pets! Warmest wishes my friend.. ~Susan

Your son has a great collection of favorite animals for pets, Beata. I like the form you chose to displayer the descriptions of each in a verse. I enjoyed readings your poetry today, my friend. Write On! Bill
