I HAD 3 FAVORITE PETS BOTH OF WHICH WERE DOGS-Ruff
When I was a teen;
I had a mixed breed;
A female dog-named Lady;
She was kind of shady;
Believe me, she was No! Lady;
Cause, she mated with everybody;
Guess we should have gotten her spayed;
Cause she just kept on have babies/litters after litters
When I was grown…
Ah! And then later on,
I’ve gotten 2 pure-bread Chow-Chows;
You know the ones wit the curly-tails and purple tongues;
A brother and sister pups, and Oh! guess what;
When they got older they listen only to Christian music;
And when a car went by outside with boom-pity-boom-pity rap music
Boom-boom-boom-boom they’d bark, cry and holler ruff,
What’s the matter?
This rap music bothered my Chow’s Jay-Jay and Jaraya

Cream puffs, pies, and chocolate brownies
Should surely be banned from the planet
They have no real value, no redeeming factor
We stuff our faces like gannets
Moms always says, “Johnie's got a sweet tooth”
So when he chows down like a pig
It gives him the okay to eat gobs of this stuff
Till he no longer can dance a jig
Now there ain't nuttin' bad 'bout being obese
Some very famous people are blimps
Won't name them here for the fear of a lawsuit
It would leave me tattered and limp
But cream puffs, pies, and chocolate brownies
Are delicious morning, noon, and night
For breakfast, lunch, or important meetings
They're evil but such a delight!

In this Season, they find Him;
Pauper's babe asleep in the barn.
They gaze skyward to ponder the stars,
And deny apostasy.
Colours red, white and green,
Chows, bountiful and green,
Carols musical and serene,
Alto, soprano mixed within.
You, plunged neck-deep
In Solomon's misdeed,
Now you can retrieve
Shards of penance and relief!

The Show
They were dressed in black tuxedos
Their bow ties were royal blue
Upon command, they danced on their hind legs
There were treats nearby, and water bowls too
They jumped through hoops as the crowd cheered on
There were six of them present, they were never alone
When the show was over, they were taught to bow
They were strong and they were tough
They were miniature chows

Scary dreams in the night
Scary spiders cause a fright
Scary hair in the morning dawn
Scary snakes in my grassy lawn
Scary spiders and snakes in dream
Certainly make one want to scream
Bite, fangs, bite and hairy legs too
Scary Chows with tongues of blue
Darkness of night, walking scary street
Heart pounds loudly and jumps a beat
Scary bears in the mighty wilderness
For God is with me, couldn't care less
For always He'll listen to my prayer
I'll go out and go to sleep if I dare
And dare I will for life is a thrill
And scary things to me won't kill
Me and I'll be free to see the world
Even a Scorpion's tail when it's curled
I will live without fear, without fright
Ouch! Bite! Scary things in the night
