counsels townsfolk day after day
A sagacious old dog
with a website and blog
He advises: Less work and more play!...

Every day you go away,
You work and don’t play,
Your smart,
You have a great heart,
Your clever,
And the best dad ever,
You love us,
We can't love you enough,
You are the best dad ever....

King of the Hill

When congress on the hill today,
Not there for work, but dirty play
When their noses out of joint
They do not do, they finger point...

Live well this day
Work well each play


Love crafts good cheer
Speak softly seer


Live hope that dreams
Seize sparkling streams


Love channels best
Joy that funds fest


Live for today
Word happy play


Love moves all things
Enjoy fond flings

Hear my cry
God created you
To live in peace
To love your enemy
As he love you.

To cherish one another
As you value wealth
To unite in the days of great turmoil
To create a world of prosperity.

To walk side by side
In times of destruction
To unfold the secrets of forgiveness
And to learn that life has no price
So why not work together and play nice...

For eons it seems I did observe,
up close and from afar,
secretly I yearned to feel them near.
I watched the pair at work and at play,
all the while dreaming they were mine.
I wished for their touch to belong to me.
I wanted to taste their delectable sweetness.
One morning you gave me my dream.
That gift held all its' promise.
It was the Kiss of Perfection....

So soon you forget me when work comes in play
I'm out of your mind while you're on display

Didn't you say this would not stress you out
it is what it is just a paycheck no doubt

I can already tell you are working unbarred
impressing the bosses who turned in your card

I am still here when you remember to breathe
or hold it all in as you puff up and seethe...

The thought of holidays makes me crazy;
If not planned well we will become lazy.
My mom’s face turns very red, 
Seeing me always in bed.
She wants me to be like a fresh daisy!

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy;
All play and no work is not a wise ploy.
Balance between work and play
Drives monotony away.
Joy is yours, this trick if you well deploy!

Don’t waste your life with regretful tears. 
“It’s not the years in your life, 
It’s the life in your years”
Abraham Lincoln spoke these words,
Some of the wisest I’ve ever heard.

By these wise words I work or I play.
This day is as precious as one to come
And the longest has but a very brief stay.
Each is a part of the total sum
And much too important to fritter away....

Lose yourself within a song
For many with music you can never go wrong
Go deep sea exploring as you dive into a book
Perhaps search for buried treasure with Captain Hook
Choose for yourself a different name
Become a different character through realms of a video game
Its so easy to get caught up in a world of all work and no play
Escape from reality and fulfill a fantasy on Halloween day...

All work and no play 
Makes Jack a dull boy
All work and no play 
Makes a life without joy

Don’t live to work
Take time for leisure
You should work to live
Life should be a pleasure

You don’t have to work
Every hour that God sends
Spend precious time
With family and friends

Don’t work all the time Jack 
Get this into your head
You’re only alive for a short time
But you’re a long time dead...

For animals of all kinds,

I've always been so passionate,

especially for dogs,

their my favorite,

I must admit,

pretty physically demanding,

so full of emotion,

when I'm grooming or training,

I give one hundred percent devotion,

I have a dog whispering style,

some say,

to watch it,

Is kind of wild,

my animals help me through each day,

weather at work, home, or play.......

Until it's time to pop my clogs,
shuffle off this mortal coil,
I'll ensure my life is fun-filled
not just daily drudgery and toil.
As all work and no play
would make me one dull boy,
listless, senseless, bored witless,
not my Mother's pride and joy.
And so, in closing, I'm compelled to say,
"Exercise free will,
don't wait, hesitate or trust to fate,
before you're over the hill."

I now will lay myself to bed
on soft pillow place my head
seeking rest from length of day
of earnest work and joyful play.

I now will place my mind to rest
to strengthen for tomorrows test
may soft sweet dreams drift me away
in warm remembrance of my day.

I now offer final prayer
to he whose promise I do share
please keep me safe throughout the night
or wake in angles glories sight.

Two roads diverged in a yellow 
wood
And I wondered if I really 
should
Take the one more traveled by
Or let my mind sprout wings 
and fly. 

I had a scheduled conference 
call
And a ton of please reply to all
I need that project yesterday
Too much work no time to play

Long I stood and looked down 
one
Carefully weighing what must 
be done
So long that I let the moment 
pass
Then took the safer well worn 
path....
