Notes About The Poem

Yorkie

Yorkie

What a wonderful day
I decided  to give Peanut my four  year old Yorkie a bath which of course he hates
I lathered him with baby shampoo and rinsed him off 
Took him outside and dried him off with a towel
Then brushed him and dried him with the hair dryer
Oh, he looked so clean and beautiful with that long silver and golden hair
Decided to take some empty containers in the back shed 
My husband mowed the yard this morning with lots of loose grass out on the yard
Which it was ok for him to roll 
But it had rained at least two inches last week, so I have some standing water behind the shed
Guess where Peanut decided to go, 
Yes into the standing water that is full of mud
So, guess what in the bath tub he goes again

Peanuts sounds so precious Eve! I bet you is very smart, protective and spoiled too. Am I wrong? Lol... I got a Yorkie too. She's only a year old and her name is Misa Victoria Marie. She's my little princess and spoiled rotten too.lol. Lol.. I just love her to pieces and she's my life! Thank you for sharing Eve. I really enjoyed reading your poem about your little boy Peanuts. Love the name! Love and light! Hugs! xxxx D.

Thank you Dorian, yes, he is very intelligent, very clingy, and very spoiled it is so hard to leave him by himself because he cries. Thank goodness my husband and I are retired and spend a lot of time with him. Thank you for reading my work love eve
