Premium MemberRodentia

I am a mouse, I am I am
I am a mouse, I am
The sort you would surely kill
If you found me in your house.

I am a rat, I am I am
I am a rat, I am
Your voice would suddenly go shrill
If you found me in your hat.


No Damage Done

No Damage Done
The storm approached suddenly
And the wind blew fiercely 
But the  tree fell slowly
It landed softly 
Trying not to disturb the gentle plants and trees around it
The animals in the forest
Watched it fall
It would have been a cozy home
For me and my family
Said the squirrel 
The perfect place for a nest
Said the robin
Its nuts would have given me food for winter
Said the chipmunk
It was a nice shady spot for napping 
Said the bear
It landed softly, no damage done
Said the man
The animals of the forest agreed
The man will never know 
The value of a tree

Premium MemberHiding Alone


   I always wanted my own dog.
   Someone to sit under the table with me.
   Fuzzy warm animal to hug,
   When too much shouting from above.

   "You can't have a dog!
   Too many fleas,
    Ticks you may not see!
   As for a fuzzy warm to hug,
   Go get your teddy bear.
   He's a big lug!"

   I've hugged all the fur off my old teddy bear.
   He only has one eye.
   The other in a corner,
   Over there.

   I still want my own dog.
   To sit under the table with me.
   Warm and fuzzy to pet,
   While the shouting continues from above.

Premium MemberI am a Giant Galapagos Tortoise

I may be almost four foot long,
but you scare me a bit
I shall retract my neck and head into my shell
what are you doing in Galapagos anyway?
you do not look like our usual species
I am the oldest living land animal in the world
yes, I am reclusive, so please go away
I will live to be one hundred and fifty
if I am not disturbed

Premium MemberOh My Doggy Oh My Cat

         Oh Doggy ! Weather clear, not foggy,
        Paths not soggy - muddy, not cloggy.  
                    Oh cat ! Why sitting idle on stair ?
                     In search of hidden rat, do you stare ?
       Me just finishing watering plants ;
      Plenty of water supply, not scant.
      Oh, Doggy ! Why are you looking slant  ?
                Get ready : Well start for morning walk ,
                to boost all of us for daily work.


Premium MemberI Might Choose to be a Mouse

If I could be any animal I might choose to be a mouse.
Finding my way by touching walls in a person’s house.
Mice do not get sick, even if they eat food that is bad.
They never get colds or pneumonia like my tired dad.
Their teeth are strong; their incisors never stop growing.
mice have no electric bills, they have no stress of owing.
They can crawl into the smallest places too.
Wait! Is that a mouse trap with sticky glue beside your shoe?

Premium Memberdescribing the meadow and her animal friends

I am balancing myself on my dog, who is built solidly.
He does not flinch, holds steady, my wolf dog, Lee.
A purple giraffe is watching, and he does not look happy.
The cat gives him a hiss, but he does not flinch of flee.

On my left arm I am balancing a dodo bird named Fee.
Hovering near my right arm is a colorful pink and green bee.
There are some posies in the meadow, said my friend Shelly.
A cat is walking by wearing blue jeans that have a sticker, Lee.

Premium Membercandy cat paw in old Arkansas

Come one, come all, down to the Candy Cat Paw!
The most fabulous kitty store in old Arkansas.
We have Animal Twists and Meow Mix too.
Mom and Dad, there are kitties waiting for homes with you.

They are being weighed and petted around.
We’ll sell them to you cheaply, by the pound.
Come one come all, down to the Candy Cat Paw!
Sugar mice are free, down in old Arkansas

Premium MemberRiding his Balloon Animal

Larry was riding his balloon animal to Tracy Town.
The balloon animal threw him off, onto the ground.
He got back up and said “Let’s do this a different way”.
The balloon animal bucked him off again, that very day.

So Larry got a needle and chased the balloon animal away.
Down the hill the balloon animal ran, then swam across the bay.
I wish I could follow you, Larry said with an intense frown.
But I think I will just travel by myself to Tracy Town.

Premium MemberLike Chip and Dale Sixties Cartoons

playful dolphins popped out of lake
frolicking like sixties Chip and Dale cartoons
Bringing a smile to my face
adding a new kind of joy to sundown at the lake

Premium MemberLet Princess Shee Have her Bee

Princess Shee was protecting her bee
It’s a giant from Mexico, a killer, said Jee
A jester from way back, he ran to tattle to the king
The king did nothing. Princess Shee was his offspring.

If she wants to keep it, then keep it she will.
She has a mind of her own, and an animal skill.
She communicates well with bats, birds and this bee.
Leave her alone the king said. That is my princess Shee.

Premium MemberJumping Gator

We all congregated to see the show at the banks of the River Goo. 
The jumping gator was schedule to jump high today, at six and two.
Clapping commenced at one forty-six, as many kids will do.
The gator jumped so many feet in the air, he scared more than a few.

We screamed and cried and wailed, there were at least twenty-two.
I was terrified, I had never seen a jumping gator do what this one could do.
I vowed to never return to the watery banks of the River Goo.
The gator scared the beejeezus out of me, and my two cousins too!

Premium MemberPink Pony Felt Silly

Pink pony felt silly with all that extra mane so fluffy and big
But her choice was either dye her own mane or wear this wig
She would do anything for her owner, Sarah Leeanna McSwig.
About the rest of these fairgoers she did not give a fig.

Premium MemberBaby Calf Bathes In a Pail

Baby calf takes his bath in the pail no matter what
Nearly taking off his chin in an “upper cut”
Because his face is too large, and his petootsie is too
I can hear him trying to get out, he has a loud moo.
