Barks of wisdom - Picture prompt

The alpha canine stood under the tree
Such doggy wisdom does not come for free
“If you bury your bone
please remember the zone
Now form an orderly queue while I pee”

Our Dog Still Barks

   Our dog still barks when he spots a worm
     though he's got no lungs for crime

   I guess you might say he's 'term an 'ill'
     ~ a hound long past his prime

snow barking yet a little

Black Dog Barks

"Black Dog Barks"



I feed the beast pieces of my heart
Black Dog Barks
prowling inside my parametres silky soft paws

Black Dog Barks
I feed the Jabberwock pieces of my mind
this is how it begins torn and bloody

I feed the Jabberwock pieces of my mind
the mirror smiles back and says, gracefully
“You’re fine”

The mirror smiles back and says, malevolently
“I own

Remarks and Barks

Soft as quicksand is the ground beneath the feet
   of those whose words attempt to rile and defeat

Thrown stones cause few ripples before they sink
   Crass sycophants fill their pens with delible ink

Barbed sticks tossed never hurt their quarry
   Never scratch the skin or give cause for worry

No bones

He Barks

Genghis, He barks, He barks, He barks
Genghis he barks

If he wants you to hold him, He barks
If he wants to be let go again, He barks
If he sees stranger or friend, He barks
If he wants out or in, He barks
If he wants you to pet him, He barks
If he gets caught peeing on the rug

WORDS AND BARKS

People were given a gift called speech
Most of the time they have nothing to teach

Dogs on the other hand can roll their eyes
They say more with wags and cries

Often people's unending words don't  matter
It might be better if people would bark and dogs chatter

The Good Artist: Carl Barks (1901-2000 ...For Donald Duck)

The Good Artist:  Carl Barks
(1901-2000)
(for Donald Duck)

The wry old enchanter wove dreams
For the thousands of children now grown,
Immortal fun enjoyment that seems
The dearest that we’ve ever known.

He took us to everywhere fun
Atlantis—the moon—at top speed
And now his last pages are done
We read and re-read and re-read.

He made sure the heroes prevailed,
At least every time
