Buddy Poems

Premium MemberOde to my dogs Buddy and Beau

Some other people’s dogs bite, snarl and snap like turtles on speed.
Our young puppy Beau dances, twirls, and bites his tail as if he’s on weed.
The other dog, Buddy, is a gentle giant, over a hundred pounds of love.
He was sent to us via a dumping, from angels who live well above.

It is no accident

Buddy 5

My buddy will always be
like poetry.

But sadly,
the poetry itself caused suddenly
an emotional rift.

And I thought
she will be standing firmly
at her stand
and I would remain feeling
stupidly upper hand and silently drift.

But she
proved herself to be the better one
just to make me realise graciously
a real buddy bond does not ever 
break or shift

and showed me thawing my

"Buddy Breathing" 

Ten leagues below
the bed of the ocean in my heart,
strange creatures exist,
they guard the gate 
of all things that 
have past 

the sound of their existence 
is strange music for strange creatures,
words are not written, nor are they spoken,
mute hearts bleeding and eyes wide open
masks are worn down here, like soft harlequins 
glistening

Buddy 4

There are two sides to my buddy,
heartless and friendly.
But if you stretch it to three
there's diplomatically deadly.

Heartless and deadly,
it doesn't translate at all exactly,
that she's mean and cruel,
It's just that I can be forgettable.

When friendly is lost in heartless,
I fall into a Shakespearean tragedy.
My emotions
start to cut me into countless feelings,
"To be, or not to

Premium MemberBuddy

Hopin' and flyin' high
Still somethin' was amiss,
Just you know why ...
It had to end like this

Not fade away a shining star
With three million records sold,
Yet, silent fell his guitar ...
And, glasses rest infold

A sound never to be heard 
Soon after that final show,
Boy, give us a clue, a word
Maybe one day we'll know

What happened that

Premium MemberMy Bigfoot Buddy

In the forest, wild and deep,
Where secrets and mysteries quietly sleep,
Lives a friend both massive and kind,
A creature unlike any you’ll find.

My crazy hairy Bigfoot buddy, so tall,
Roams through the trees, answering nature's call.
He sneaks to my backyard as moonlight breaks,
Together we play by the silvered lakes.

When the world is cloaked in the nighttime's shroud,
We

Buddy 3

My buddy wants me to go.
In the midst of that made-up nature,
just for the general attendance
and just as a general creature,
to a gathering I sometimes find
so fake and shallow.

She said so formally,
"Why would you need anybody ?
Go, be by yourself, and have fun !"

But buddy, if you could only tell,
"Just go for me,
breaking your aversive

Buddy 2

That day, it was a fun day,
I waved at my buddy.
From far away, over the greens
and the tracks,
she waved back at me too.

But the rest of the day
she ignored me, and so ignored me
all the way !
And that got me to go deep
under the deepest of the blue.

The First Buddy

You know, a Prez is numero uno,
And then there’s First Lady. Yes, we all know.
But murmur tinnitus
Says, there’s more to this buzz:
A guy called First Buddy and big no, no.

Premium MemberBuddy Hi-Di-Ho Santy

Buddha meets ... that is strange,
Announce the meet ... strange the more,
Buddha meets ... not so strange,
Announce misquote ... Buddha just wrote,
Though history ... Buddha's story, 
Timing bit off ... historians scoff,
What came first; egg or chicken ... what came post; begs a question,
Christmas or Buddha ... Buddha or Christmas,
It is neither ... here nor

Buddy

There goes my buddy, out the door.

I did not see her all day
and it did not cause any downpour.

As she leaves,
she nods and smiles from the distance,
sincere and sure, and somehow
that moment
makes her my buddy, even more.

My husband and I have two dogs – Buddy and Beau
Buddy is a gentle giant, one hundred and sixteen pounds
Beau is an exuberant puppy, licking and chewing, chewing and licking
we adore them, they are like giant ponies, galloping through the house

Beau will jump from blue couch to recliner to brown couch
makes no difference that I

Premium MemberI Brushed Buddy Today

I brushed my dog Buddy in the driveway today.
It looks like someone discarded a feathered mattress
He has as much fluffy stiff fur as any sheep I have met
the robins will be fighting over it for their nests
which is why I did it there instead of in the house

Premium MemberBuddy one of my Guardian Angels

one of my guardian angels lives with me
disguised as a dog
I keep calling him Blue,
after my husky whom I had for ten years
Blue adored me, as Buddy does now.
Weirdly enough I call my baby Beau dog
“Buddy” which is Buddy’s name, not Blue.
How we got all of these B names going is odd.
I have also had
