Best Yaps Poems

From the kitchen sink at the window sill,
I see a house on the distant hill,
when as a child I had time to kill,
where now my spirit wanders still.
Then life changed on a day that’s dire,
we choked on smoke and could see the fire -
that hillside...

On a steady morning walk -
Got a rhythm going
Hearing aids in
And yes, I'm "strollin'"

Click
Clack

Click, clack
Click, clack, click

Noisiest coat in the world.

Thunk
Rain drops falling
Thunk

Click, clack, thunk
Click, clack, clunk
Thunk, click, clack

Yes - The noisiest coat in the world.

Forget it.  Focus.
Enjoy...

There once was a Greek so to Speak
A weird kind of dominate freak!
He yaps and complains
Then argues in vain  
Til Boring's his middle name!...

When you hear the annoying yaps of them pups.
Remember the gifts they bring as hunters.
Then lose the fear of hungering "cause of luck.
And temper from the whiffs of thier farters.

They act as Alarm clocks and not just for work.
Legally eat a burgler with a well...

Paws on the Avenue

Every afternoon ‘bout half past four
Paddy and I go out the door
No straying from our daily ritual.

Paws on Fido Avenue
Happy tails of sloppy kisses unmuzzled
Parade of canines – every kind “bone-i-fied.”

A purebred mutt strut cavalcade
Fashion parade of single coats
Long hairs march in...

(For Ollyver, the one and only dog I ever had, a miniature Eskimo)

As shadows fall, he lingers through the night
and looks out to the street, his muzzle pressed
against the windowpane; he sees the light
as I drive up. He lifts a snowy chest.
Excitedly he yaps and...

My pup is such a fluffy lump
Cute and sweet and quiet plump.
He chews, he plays, wees on the mat
And tends to annoy the kitty cat.

He yaps and yaps growls and yaps
And likes to sleep on my lap.
He loves to play with his favourite toy
My cushions...

My little Chihuahua is such a guard

couldn't keep him barred on our side of the yard

troublesome and never shy

yaps at every passerby

Ah, chihuahua! Why? My little Bernard.


Since he keeps escaping, contrived a plan, 

reluctant, under his harness I ran

horizontal a wood spoon

A distraught whirling typhoon...

Nestle in deep slumber the mighty Kublai dreams
of lapping cold milk, eating fresh meat, running wild
with hundreds of his doggie friends

Little Genghis shoots up from bed and darts out
running to room to room to sniff and search for what abouts
finding Kublai asleep on his fluffy...

When it gets dark and the clock strikes twelve,
 Freezing winds pass blushing the silver bell.
 Snowballs move slowly like a trotting horse,
 Boisterous breezes push open the casements with force.

 Then from dark deep skies, under the clouds shed,
 With reindeers pulling the sledge,...

he does not know that he is small
in his world,  he's nine feet tall
the little black dog with the long tail
sees the world high is he's being held
over the fence, his eyes are trained
his ears perk up as he observes his domain
his little head...

n the morning as I awake tired and groggy I slowly open my eyes to start the day
Although at first all I can think of is that first cup of coffee, as the cat whines
 for food, the husband yaps at me I notice I...

An Australian pug so loves prawn
she could munch it from evening ‘till dawn
It’s called shrimp, silly Aussie
yaps a Yank borzoi quite bossy
But being good mates, their anger’s long gone...
