Best Mutts Poems


Squirrel Real Estate
Squirrel agent showed him thousands of trees
this particular client being very picky
how about this one she'd plead
no he'd say not enough leaves

She'd say this one is nice but he'd disagree
saying too many squirrels means no privacy
after weeks of driving around they got into a rut
basically...

There are many things that annoy me but I'll mention just a few.

My Blessings...
Steven, My Love, my best friend in life,

Parents that support me in whatever I do;

My two puppies Zeus & Eos (both mutts)

My heritage of Potawatomi, Huron and Sioux;

A family willing to lend me support,

A wonderful house to come home to;

A simple world I can call...

Wet But Wiser
palindromes

A dog! A panic in a pagoda!
Teenager Rex brought a can of soda;
he shook it up hard and then pulled the tab.
But Rex was too slow for their choc'late lab.

Cain: a maniac, the brown dog's head swelled,
confused by the fizz but a rat he had...

Premium Member My Friend Robbie
I have a dear feathered friend who greets me each day at dawn!
He likes to dwell in and around the crab apple tree on my lawn!
From his perch he serenades me on wintry Colorado morns so drear,
Cheerily belting out trilling melodies that are so pleasing...

Premium Member If Dogs Could Talk
If dogs could talk, what would they say?
  Would they label any of their own as "mangy mutts?"  
Would they toss around epithets like "cur" or "?"
  Would they call a down-and-outer a "dog without a bone?"

If dogs could talk, would they...

Premium Member Bad Dog
Hark! Hark! The pesky dog doth bark,

   And deposits indiscretions in the park!

      Perhaps doggie wouldn't be such a klutz,

         If masters would learn to mind their mutts!

Premium Member W C Fields
W C Fields loved his booze

   And was known to be a recluse

      He despised women, kids and mutts

         Of that there were no ifs, ands or buts

Premium Member Sure Cure For Making Up For Lost Sleep
Folks, I have to tell you I ain't been sleepin' all that well as of late.

Some of the problem is due to the obnoxious snorin' of my mate!

Or it could be the neighbor's barkin' dogs up and down the street,

And believe me, there are howlin'...

Premium Member Colloquialisms - For Contest
Poor Humpty Dumpty was a numpty when he fell off the garden wall
His poor old ma went bananas, told me to buzz off when I call

Guess I better sit on the shelf otherwise I’ll go completely nuts
I ain’t gonna take no stick from that mangy...

Poodles From Outer Space
They come in many different sizes
Different colors, different cuts
All purebred from Poodle planet
No mixing of Martian mutts 

Innocently enough we let them into our homes
Now with too many it is to little to late
We've been taken captive without even knowing
By Poodles from Outer Space

Soon, very...

Premium Member Sleep Is Hard To Come By Nowadays
And, now I lay me down to sleep,
For another wretched night of counting sheep!
Lord, should I expire before I awake,
Please allow me some zzzzzzzzs for heavens sake!

The cat has leaped upon the bed,
And snuggles closely nigh my head,
Purring as loud as a Mack truck diesel...

Stop Washing Your Dogs In My Swimming Pool
My swimming pool is full of fur, pee, and dog poo.
Your dogs contaminate my pool and it's because of you.
Every day while I'm at work, you use my pool to bathe your twenty-five mutts.
When I asked you to stop it, you gave me the finger...

My Morning Ritual
5:30 am...I hit the snooze
To turn off the obnoxious sound
All I do is delay
The morning melee
As the sound rolls back around

Quarter till six I remove all the sticks
From my eyes also known as sleep
My feet hit the floor
As mutts scratch on my door
A reminder of...
