Scruffy Bear

I sit and watch you everyday
From a bookshelf where I will stay
Not quite like new, patched with a swatch
You everyday, I sit and watch

You used to hold me so much more
When I was softer, not yet tore
I'll wait right here for you to see
So much more, you used to hold me

Once a loved one, now

Scruffy

they spoke it as shame and
talked about
what the Lady had said
when they told the story
of Spazinchon my Missus'
cheeks turned red.
I found it shameful to repeat it
since I can't say how
it begun.
Love inspires those who
seek it.
The right kind of love will make
you feel dumb.
Ya'll know the story of Miss Trickus
the quilting blanket making Madam.
she stitched together

Hank's Scruffy Boots

Hank rested his boots on the railin' of the bunkhouse when day was done.
The pointy-toes of his scruffy boots framed the slowly settin' sun.
He leaned back in his rockin' chair, his hands embracin' the back of his nape,
Contemplatin' his tattered boots, (tho' they was still in purty good shape!)

He paid ten bucks fer 'em at

A Scruffy Cat's Tail

Once when I went to the store
Saw an old cat named Kitty Galore.

She sang and she pranced
And tried hard to dance,

But still remained just an eyesore.

Larry the Gardener and Scruffy

Larry and his Sheep Dog Scruffy
Are together always on the road
Larry has knowledge of gardening
So he is well known by all
Larry has a huge van
So he packs what tools he needs 
Even brings his lawn chair
As well his dog Scruffy and beer

He works from house to house
His dog Scruffy keeps him company
When the gardening is

Me and My Dog Scruffy

Raspberry tea and cheese scones for me
Grape Gatorade and chuck bones for he
Galoshes, wool coat plus scarf and muffs
Flannel vest, crafted jeans, rolled up cuffs

A winter’s walk and a time to talk we go
Lots of fluffy snow and rivers don’t flow
Frosty air stings, chills and shivers it brings
Footprints left behind, two and four a kind

Today

Cowboy Hank's Scruffy Boots

Hank lounged on the bunkhouse porch tossin' back some beers,

Watchin' the sunset and reminiscin' about his cowboyin' years.

He peered at the sun 'twixt the pointy toes of his shabby boots

Propped on the railin', that he'd wore durin' his cowpokin' pursuits!

He'd bought 'em fer about twelve bucks twenty-five years er so ago,

At The Cowpokes Friendly Tack

Our Dog Named Scruffy

Our dog named Scruffy likes to sleep by the fireplace,curled up in a ball.
He likes to cuddle in between us for attention, to be petted, and spoken to.
His favourite treat is Beggin' Strips". It's the only thing he will eat.

At bedtime Scruffy sleeps in the middle, so no one is left out,in our big bed.

Scruffy the Bantam

Scruffy the Bantam
by Robert (Bob) Moore © 2015

Grey Mare Lane Markets, was a place I used to like
I used to go there Saturdays, riding on my bike
Down Mount Road, then Hyde Road, then down Pottery Lane
Told my Mam a snake I’d buy, she’d say “then don’t come home again”

I ended up with day old chicks,
