Labrador Bus Stop
On a whim a black lab waited
where other people do.
At a bus stop man created,
he smoked a cig too.
His paws outstretched ready to pounce
onto the shuttle of spluttering fumes.
He'd ran away and this was his last chance
to leave the humans painless; still humming their tunes.
This bus would take him to fields of squirrels
To an old

A Joyous Song of Companionship
The morning sun spills across the porch, casting a golden sheen on everything it touches. There, in a weathered rocking chair, sits a whiskered old man, his face a roadmap of countless smiles and sorrows. Beside him, a white labrador, whose fur almost glows in the light, listens intently. The man's raspy voice, a gentle

The Labrador
If I wasn't there,
the rain swollen clouds
would have still dumped
their dark weight over the bay
and through a gaping tear,
let down a curtain of sunlight
to start the day.
And if I wasn't there,
the old, arthritic labrador
would have still waddled
along the street
with its bent but steady gait,
undistracted, self absorbed
and fixed in its own stare

Debonair Lord Labrador
Lord Labrador was so dapper and debonair,
When the wenches saw him, they put their legs in the air.
He could have his sniff of whatever female he fancied.
None of them ran off or avoided him. They prance-ied.
Lord Labrador was used to having things his way.
He could whistle and have a steak and ale at

A Labrador So Jet Black
Hey I'm a beautiful black labrador
look at my coat so silky smooth
just run your hand across it now
feels like velvet so cool so sooth
I have such a loud clear bark
seeing intruders coming miles away
you'll be protected from every enemy
I'm the one to keep you astay
But at my heart, I'm really soft
love to get cuddles all
