Silence

Why is the silence
Like a deafening roar
I still cringe when someone
Knocks on our door

I wait for your chorus 
Your lion like bark
But the silence is blinding
Like a nuke in the dark

I wake up to barking
And half asleep
I automatically go
Check outside for a creep

I wake in the night 
And sneak out of bed
So I don't disturb you
Then I remember your dead

Why would the world
Steal you like that
I couldn't tell you I loved you
And send you off with a pat

The world didn't deserve 
An angel like you
And wherever you are
I'll always love you my boo


Liar liar

Liar liar
Pants on fire
That's what you all will say

Unless your pretty
Or cool and witty
Or have enough money to pay

Your on your own
Like a dog with a bone
Fighting an invisible beast

Followed by trainers
Who say there not haters
Like jesus at the last feast

Liar liar
Tongues on fire
That's what you all said

You don't even know me
One day you'll see
Why you don't wish people dead

Premium MemberOur Walk Today

When Sara and I take our walk each day,
We usually go the same old way.
Today we decided to make a change,
We decided to make our walk free range.

We went to a park named Natural Springs.
It had a dog park and playground with swings.
We chose a trail with overhanging trees,
We had a full sun, but also a breeze.

I saw a small path that led to a stream,
But Sara said, “the path’s too extreme.”
I gave her my, I really want to look,
And she said, “I’ll sit here and read my book.”

I walked a few minutes, looking about,
Then thought, I’m not sure just how to get out.
It wasn’t long ‘til I found the right path.
I crossed the stream without taking a bath.

There was my Sara, as I topped the hill,
She told her new squirrel friend, “here comes my Bill.”
We shared my adventure as we walked away,
We were glad we tried a different way.

Premium MemberAre Witches real

Witches  in capes and their black pointed hats

Riding on brooms with their black
Witches cat.

Witches don't laugh they just cackle and scream 

Are Witches reality or do they  just live in your dream  

Witches casting spells That can make you bark like a dog 

Making up Witches potions that can turn
You into a frog

Witches are they real this or is what I write 
All in fun

But I will only advise you this if you do 
See a witch RUN.

Premium MemberCrepe Paper Apartments

Safe within these four walls

My new apartment is swell

But, what's that noise next door?

Is that my neighbors doorbell?

I'm attracting nosey eyes

When company comes over

We have to speak in whispers 

Or wake up their dog "Grover"

Neighborhood ears await

Even when I take a "Whiz!"

Crepe Paper Apartments 

Everyone knows your "Biz!"


JUST RIGHT, In Two Parts

College Before Family, 1982
My pen just writes
My dog just bites
My wife just fights
And I just might
Decide everything’s alright.

Empty Nest, 2025
Life didn’t quite yield that plight
Because the pen barely writes
The pups play fight
The kids had height
Were polite
And actually bright
The wife’s a delight
Most days and nights
My life might be trite,
And I’m good with this slight rewrite.

   Strange new neighbor,
   Smoking outside.
   Comes over to talk,
   Pet my dog.
   While I stroll by.
   Said he had never seen me before,
   Walking my dog past his door.
   Seems to watch everyone.
   Wonder if his brain is undone,
   Or maybe just a friendly soul.
   Peering out at a world he beholds.

A Very Bad Day

When I arose one day, I could barely walk.
Had to drink my coffee before I could talk.

Before I was done, the bathroom would call,
I held the grab bar, but still managed to fall.

The shower beckoned me, so I went on in.
I slipped on the soap, and bruised my shin. 

Later I was hungry, so in the kitchen I go.
I screamed a bit loudly, when I stubbed my toe.

My dog started barking, and looking quite mean.
He then bit my leg, it was a real bloody scene.

I made it to the fridge, and looked inside,
There was nothing to eat, so I sat down and cried.

I ordered a large pizza, and thought "oh well".
But when it arrived, it was burnt as hell. 

I tried to take a walk, but my feet were still sore,
Instead of feeling good, it was becoming a chore. 

I made it back home, after slipping in the mud,
That's it, I thought, this day's a real dud. 

I thought tomorrow will be good, like it's always been,
I laid my head on my pillow, then the ceiling caved in. 

Goodnight!

Premium MemberCall Of The Wild

Yes, I’m the cute little pooch,
You treat like a substitute child, 
Domesticated and to some extent,
By breeding, I’m pedigree styled,
But don’t ignore my ancestral line,
For I still listen to the call of the wild,
And in my heart I’m still a wolf
And this wolf can be easily riled.

His pawprints linger

As a young kid back in the hood,
It was just me and a pet friend~
He was the joy of my childhood~
His remembrance would never end.

I called him Pup as a puppy,
Because the poops he made me pack,
Whenever he ate hushpuppy~
Which I enjoyed as a noon snack.

His name later changed to Hot Dog,
When that became his preferred meal.
At mealtime he'd happily jog,
Since dog food was then his raw deal.

He assisted in all my chores,
He followed me to every place~
He used to greet me on all fours,
From home to school, he kept his pace.

While returning home from my school,
On one hot summer afternoon,
He fell and got drowned in a pool,
To his death, I failed to attune.

Years passed, his memory lives on,
No pet has again brought the joy~
Of those beautiful days bygone,
His pawprints linger in my heart.

Premium MemberHappy 16th Birthday Bonnie


My Bonnie lass is sixteen now
Her birthday is today.
And for a husky that is old
I’ve heard our young vet say.

My dear old dog, we love her so
And glad that she’s still here.
Her routine every day is set
She’s trained us well each year.

A pup who loved to go for walks
I’d let her off the lead.
She’d run about, and proved to be
An independent breed.

We’ve watched her grow, she has great style
A husky through and through.
She loves to have our company
We spoil her, that is true.

A better friend could never have
Such joy to us she brings.
Although she’s old, still has her life
That pulls on our heart’s strings.

The years have flown, her time is near
No longer can she play.
But now she’s turned sweet sixteen,
     “Bonnie Happy Birthday”.

Winter warmth

Winter warmth, comfort eating,
Dog house took some beating,
Dog got fat, so did I,
Sunny clothes did heave their sigh,
Guess, Dog, this is our fat day,
Thinner salads shall hold sway,
Lettuce shreds, lack a day,
Fat days, thin days, my yo-yo way!

Old Man

Old Man

Old man asleep on the floor, does he dream of all his years from before.  When in his youth he ran wild, digging and being the guardian of the farm where nothing dated go near?  Or perhaps of escaping to only go to the pound, were they knew him by name, because of his frequent escapes he perfected to a tee. Graciously greeting him with hugs and treats, he was special to them on each one of his retreats. 

This old man brought many years of unconditional love and companionship for me, but the end of his days are drawing near.  I am grateful for each of those devoted years 18+ years along with great sadness when the end of his days are here. He's not just a dog but a part of me that will forever go on in my memory.

He sleeps more than usual because his body needs rest to prepare for his adventure he has next. I have no doubt his next adventure will be something he will look forward to, because of how great it will be. His adventure next will be no more old man but of youth and unwavering health in God's great hands.

Premium MemberSeeing Mold


   The joy of growing mold.
   Squirrels would watch.
   Birds would tweet.
   My old bread,
   They would seek!
   Even dogs would come by,
   When letting the moldy bread freebees sailing in the sky.

   Haven't seen much molding bread,
   Usually, the mold means its dead!
   Eating toast with butter,
   Smearing on some peanut butter.
   The seeded grainy bread doesn't have room to spread.
   
   Used to see lovely green mold,
   Before the store said it was too old!
   Now the bread keeps for weeks,
   Beats out the dog food for moldy treats.

   Is there something in it?
   Fights off mold before it grows.
   Can keep on going for a month,
   Must be the seeds that hides a bunch.
   Or perhaps my eyes are growing old,
   Now I just can't see growing mold.
