William Krichbaum Poet Light Verse

The Companion

When you got up out of bed did you rub your head,

take a look around put your feet on the ground,

did you take a couple steps before you looked down,

to your dismay at what you have "found"

a cold round pile that is stinky and brown.

That friend that companion that loving old hound,

that sun beach is hiding and he better leave town.

Diane Munsinger December 28, 2013 at 4:19 PM Today I was looking through Poetry Soup, and this poem pops up before me, called "The Companion." I read it, of course, and I laughed so hard, and could not stop! So then I had to read the rest of your poems and they kept me laughing. Are you going to write more? Thanks for making my day! Diane
