Poems are like puppies

Poems are like puppies
cute cuddly little bastards
that steal your heart
trouble your soul
amuse and annoy
tinker with our thinkers
smile with us and at us
and sometimes....
well, ask Jan

I like the comparison. I hope my poems have been housebroken.

John, you are the unchallenged champion of "Ars Poetica".... poetry sits like a specimen on your writing table waiting to be dissected...and tgen you stitch it back up with humour...

Ain't this the truth!!! Our new puppy absolutely "tinkers with our thinkers" as we are constantly inventing new ways to get our point across and move beyond the reach of puppy choppers! So fun, John! Thanks for the smile and laughter! Blessings
