The Puggily Smidgeburner and the Prettisome Guru

The Puggily Smidgeburner and the Prettisome Guru embark on finding Pug love at the town's rare breeds zoo The guru’s desperately trying to find sad Puggily a date and if things go to plan perhaps they’d eventually mate They pass by many enclosures, stopping at the Jangaroo but Janga was busy bouncing; as a mate she wouldn’t do Poor Puggily’s crest starts to fall as they peer in every cage guru says he mustn’t give up hope - he’s such a wise sage! At the end of an overgrown path they see a big red sign It says ‘endangered species’, please do not cross this line But to Puggily Smidgeburner’s amazement and surprise There’s a female Smidgeburner right before his very eyes Prettisome Guru has a quiet word with the zoo keeper he arranges a date so that lonely Puggily can meet her Puggily’s date is Delicassa she is beautiful and sweet and Puggily’s determined to sweep her right off her feet They agree to meet next day on the dot at half past two but Delicassa arrives a little late, as females often do! She’s got tiny rainbow braids adorning her blonde hair Puggily holds her paw, they chat away without a care Very soon they are inseparable, he’s found his mate for life after a whirlwind romance Delicassa becomes Puggily’s wife In time she gives birth to Carena, their family’s complete and both of them agree married life just cannot be beat!

aww thanks Rico, it was quite a challenge and after I wrote the poem I discovered i had an error in my title and it should be 'her' guru' not the but I am taking a chance that 'Trixie' who is judging the contest for Caren will be lenient, its too much hassle to change the poem at this late stage, but win or lose it was a fun challenge:-) hugs jan xx
