Best Let Sleeping Dogs Lie Poems

"GO FETCH"

Call me whatever to suit your moods
Lay me out with cuss words, “give me the goods”

Scandalize my name every place you go
“It’s a dog eat dog world” but I hate that flow

So scatter your venom to the four winds of earth 
Burn the night...

Let sleeping dogs lie
Don't get tripped by their feet
They come awake with a snarl,
and might think that you're meat....

Mischievous Cats


Bella and Shadow nestled in their woven beds on the cat tree.

Bella stretches out her legs and purrs. 


"Psst, Psst. Hey, Shadow, are you up for some fun?"

"Sure!” Shadow purred, "What do you have in mind?"

"Let's go tease Peeddie.

Let's see how far he can...

‘Let the past be’ he said
Why disturb peace
Why not let sleeping dogs lie
Why awaken the dead
Why dig old skeletons
For you can’t stand the omen.

Why not cherish tomorrow,
Why not anticipate for the future
For there’s much to look for
To correct the past mistakes
To create new life
To wave...

My ancestors came here long ago
Tough and strong not weak
But somewhere down along the line
Something went terribly wrong
And now I have to sit here and deal with my legacy
Of not what I thought it would be
Not where I choose to be right now
The legacy that’s...

A right pair of dim wits, leaving one other emotionally scared
That’s her and him, but true what they say old habits die hard
Always a storm, again at each others thoats, this girl and guy
Is it the norm? comparing notes, if they'd let sleeping dogs lie

He...

Pride and Prejudice A Dog’s Tale

Simply scratching is really not fair
said King Kong to the mut in his lair
you’ve laid down with me’s
and I’m covered with fleas
Now, Fay Wray will end our affair!

Oh well, said the pink Pomeranian
Find a pet, a bit, more pedestrian
Let sleeping...

Carpe Diem, seize the day
Live by the rules of the game you play
The world is your oyster, enjoy the ride
When the going gets tough, look on the bright side
Silence is golden, take that to the bank
Put that in your pipe while smoke screens draw blank
Though...

Itchy Palms
Gold that shone
Is now gone

Yellow at heart
By fear stricken
Acts the chicken

Roadrunner
Have the ability
To show agility

Dream Catcher
I was told
To be bold

The Grim Reaper
Without a face
Dictates the pace

Let sleeping dogs lie
I slept instead
Beside the bed

Everyone harbors a tattered fleet of bygones in dock
Old scores and sores of direct hits we've sustained
In past long gone battles and tussles, well past o'clock
But held as bygone mementos, your slate unclean and stained.

Forgiveness should not forget, but should move on.
Let sleeping dogs lie,...

When someone is broken
Don't use words to break them more
For the cracks are all ready exposed
And can hold no more

Sometimes what's holding 
Is thinner than hair
Used bubble gum 
Burnt wax 
Something barely there

Breakage comes from many things
Old age, illness, addiction
Sometimes your just tired
Have little fight...

She’d say jump and him how high
Should have bought a lead I’d say
If only they’d let sleeping dogs lie
But an unusual breed he won’t stray

When back again he comes running
As always with his tail between his legs
Though she too can be just as cunning
Perhaps she...

The unknown is always buried
Life is always hurried
Laziness is not inherited
A man of color is still much hated
Is trust jaded?
Will Saddam Hussein ever be charged?
Ask Bush if Osama Bin Laden will ever be captured.
Will the truth ever be told or exposed.
Peace in this life time...

Better let sleeping dogs lie
Just in case
They were to open one eye
Stare at my face
Not like what they see
And take a bite of me...

I wave as you pass by the roadside
But your eyes are only focused on what you see ahead
You can't see what's on the side
I call out to you but you got your music so loud
You can't hear any other so sound
Frustrated i walk away 
Kicking...
