fancy schmancy corgi Nancy
Dressed all up, and acted prancy
with floral tattoos on her pretty hips
she paraded around in bleeps and blips
Who does she think she is? Asked Bean.
She is the queen, she is the queen.
Nancy nodded, her fur all bright with gleam.
Her parents smiled, she was their sunbeam.
The wren was a bit fearful, but the robin was glad.
It would be the first Corgi Uber ride that he ever had.
My cousin said that the Corgi is gentle, his name is Thad.
By the time they got started they were joined by bird Brad.
I will try to entertain you, their Uber driver said.
He was a substitute driver, Thad’s cousin, young Ted.
The birds listened to his stories and liked what they heard.
From then on Ted was requested by every meadow’s sweet bird.
They were dynamic, their harmony was fine!
They had pared down to four, from the original nine.
The five who could not sing had pneumonia that day.
We applauded these Corgis in every which way.
They sang Joy to the World and Jingle Bells too.
Adding a bit of jazz, and then Christmas Wee Woo.
They were amazing, and we could not stop clapping.
At the end these Corgis did a bit of back slapping.
Corgis bought a camper and glam-med it up.
Put in fancy cushions and fine places to sup.
Decorated their hook up with glowing lights.
Welcomed in company on glamping nights.
The beagles arrived first, they shared their bones.
The corgis entertained with songs, stories and poems.
German shepherds were next, bringing their best meat.
Company like that simply cannot be beat!
The corgi’s campsite was an inspiration to all.
Great Danes saw them and jumped over the wall.
Pretty soon they had an orchestra of happy dogs.
They watched the bonfire until gone were all the logs.
A Welsh corgi in Kalamazoo
has a whole lot of explaining to do
With no beef or potatoes
or leeks or tomatoes
there’s nothing much left in the stew!
An alchemist corgi in Pocatello
is a nice, but irrational fellow
He walked to Coeur d’Alene
to find fortune and fame
by making gold from a bowl of lime Jell-O
Creative mind of yours made you special,
Ordinary words that we've shared a lot, made me feel like i don't want to leave,
Rigid personality that i've seen in you gives lethal
Gloomy days are gone in my life since you've told me to believe,
Impecabble thinking of yours made me believe that you are essential.

My corgi-mix,
when I ever say
that to you, with
a smile do I get
and a wag of your tail.
You misunderstand
me all the time
if I say talk,
your ready for a walk.
Your always wanting
something of kisses
do I get, knowing
full well, your up to something.
5:30 is feeding time,
and you somehow
know it, you search
me out and look at your bowl.
Never forget day
we got you, add
in paper read,
free corgi-mix.
What's a corgi-mix
the lady brought you
over, love at first
site with a corgi-mix.
You have been with
us ten years as
of June 26, 2007,
love you so, my corgi-mix.
