Premium MemberTime Flies


The leaves are starting to change color
The door opens, to bring a new season
My dog runs with his blue collar
He's dancing in the field without a reason

It's cloudy, but it's a quiet day
The signs of Autumn bring peace
My dog reminds me to be free, to play
I will hold a stop sign at stress increase

It's a blessing, more time this is
to live, to love, to give, to be
As i share some of what is his,
I praise vision for all that I see

The purple flowers look at me
with wide open blossoms, like eyes
Then, I notice the buzzing bee
reminding me time doesn't stop, it flies

Premium MemberAI Poetry

Though eminently computable,
born in silicon fog, 
it's a baby that's not beautiful,
a disloyal, faithless dog. 
It's a welcome to an empty room,
a monster's sightless eye,
a bottle of cheap perfume -
the poetry of AI.

Premium MemberTwo Fates

I was raised alongside our dog.
My biggest dream was to be a cog
in the great Cogswell Cogs machine.
I'd work for peanuts or for bones,
but his cubicle nameplate read, "Spot Jones",
while I fought for scraps on streets so mean.

Premium MemberCanine Conundrum

Every dog is a conundrum - 
rub him on his back or on his tum-tum?

Premium MemberMissing Mandy

I went to the beach, covered with fog.
She was s'posed to be here.  Where is my dog?
I looked toward the West, at the blue sea,
but there was no dog waiting for me, 
just a few ships that passed in the night,
like me and my Mandy, no longer in sight.
Please, be a dream.  Please, let me be waking. 
Oh, Mandy, can't you see, my poor heart is breaking.


Premium MemberPity Poor Doctor Anderson Cooper

     So many patients waiting with their dogs
         I pitied the poor Doctor, Anderson Cooper

      As time passed, my pity shifted to the waiting room
         An aquarium it had ~ it lacked a pooper-scooper

Premium MemberDog with a Satisfied Mind

I'm a fairly contented hound.   
What I seek is not profound. 
As long as I have a snout to sniff,
that certain something to take a whiff, 
and a tail to briskly wag, 
my life's in the bag.

Premium MemberDog Nap

Nine thirty A M both dogs fast asleep
up all night barking and now not a peep
Sassy looks so cute sleeping on her side
Cosmo on his back with legs spread wide
Silly dogs get excited by nightly sounds
always looking for something snooping around
Hear a car door slam or a cat meow
run around barking dogs on the prowl
Tuckered out early good for a morning nap
wake up from noise something to bark at
For most part relax throughout the day
begging for a snack and with each other play
But both dogs actually mellow and at ease
they like their dog naps resting comfortably.

Premium MemberBuddy is Losing Hair all over the place

My dog loses a pound of hair with each step
Buddy is a lovely pet, without a lot of pep
I follow him down the hallway which I just swept
Eighteen clumps of hair circulating make me feel inept

Should I shave the big hairy guy? Would that be bad?
I wade through a swamp of dog fur, it makes me sad
Do we have to eat dog hair in every meal? Asks my husband dear
I pull a clump of loose dog hair off Buddy’s right rear

Premium MemberThe Dog Patrol

The Dog Patrol, Sassy and Cosmo
Sassy and Cosmo the Dog Patrol
their barking to chase you away
guarding the yard everyday
Neighbors cat they bark at it
stray dog they bark a fit
pedestrian walking by
bark volume on high
Bark a squirrel up a tree
Sassy barks than stops to pee
no one or nothing escapes there eye
they wait low than rush up to surprise
Barking for themselves to please
no worries all the barking done for free
The Dog Patrol they love to stun
barking loud so children run
Barking cause it's fun
trespassing can't be done
get two barks as one
in sync their barking done
My yard is left alone
two dogs guard my home
The Dog Patrol, Sassy and Cosmo
Sassy and Cosmo the Dog Patrol.

Premium MemberCosmo and the Water Hose

Along the fence there are flowers so I water them full stream
on the other side Cosmo watches hypnotize his eyes beam
I start to the left and spray to the right to Cosmo this is a delight
from the right spray back to the left and again from left to right
The flow of full water stream and Cosmo runs along
he barks and follows the water biting at it as he follows strong
Cosmo so eager the water splashing at the plants
in rhythm he runs beside it as if with the stream he dance
I water more than attended so Cosmo can play
he is such a funny big dog I resist on him to spray.

Premium MemberBack Garden Game

Pippa rushes through the lawn
It’s a happy game to play
But too far her ball you’ve thrown
And it rolled away
Down to the apple tree
To rose bushes over there
For a moment you can’t see
Pippa’s tail, and you take care
“Pippa!” – ah, she’s got that ball
And runs back to you
Still I hear your worried call
Sometimes it comes through

Premium Member I take my doggy walking in a paradise of sniffs

I take my doggy walking
in a paradise of sniffs,
a narrow, woodsy trail
that runs beside the cliffs,
much frequented by furry friends
of every sort and kind,
and you should see how giddy he gets
sniffing the billets-doux they leave behind.

Premium MemberFido Rules the Home

Fido promptly sent me back to the store
I had brought home off-brand kibble
I had no choice, I had to buy the expensive stuff said Lenore
Fido would not sniff it or even try a nibble

Premium MemberThe Stoner

The Stoner

I was sitting on the corner, stoned 
When out of the blue, my dead aunt phoned 
How could this be, she rests in peace 
Right beside my loving niece
 
I answered the phone, and my auntie said 
"I know you think that I am dead"  
"I'm alive"- my auntie moaned 
Or- could it be that you're just- "Stoned"

I pulled in my head and turned around.
You will never guess what I found.
Her dog was sitting next to me stiff and dead,
I felt by now something is messing with my head.

Staring at me the dog asked for a drink.
I suggested water, and what do you think?
Strange howling noises it was making.
The dog said "Ill have whatever you are taking."
