The Basset Hound

Is it sorrow in canine disguise?  
Is it pity empathic and wise?
Or is it not either 
Nor sympathy neither
But hunger we see in its eyes?

Premium Member Basset Hound Mayor

The most corrupt official around
was replaced by a young basset hound
Now mayor of Butte
he's tough and he's cute
barking decisions both honest and sound

Premium Member All I Want For Christmas

All I want from Christmas Eve reindeer
A basset hound puppy to revere
With a Rudolph nose
To elf size she grows
Jingle bell stepping on her own ears!

Premium Member Skateboarding Hound

An uncommonly spry basset hound
was annoyed when his ears swept the ground
But his spirits soared
when he got a skateboard
Now he’d Doggie Olympics bound

Premium Member Bailey the Whining Basset Hound

A dog named Bailey
Is a basset hound
She would eat all day
If it could be done

She always wants food
Her stomach is never full
At night when tired 
Her bed is made up

In the laundry room
a gate to block the door
the whines to what seems
Like hours on end

Whines so loudly
That seems like hours
Only ten minutes
Until it all ends

Premium Member Oh Maggie Jo Nursery Rhyme

Oh, Maggie-Jo Sparks, my basset hound
The best of the houndom breed
A friendlier pooch cannot be found
You are a grand ol' gal indeed!

Oh, oh Maggie-Jo you should be crowned
Queen of the Canine Race
With every terrier and spaniel around
Bow wowing your noble grace!

Premium Member Channel Surfing Hound

A discerningly keen basset hound

                     Watches              TV              when no one’s around
                                        He surfs the remote
                                        without taking a vote

                           until     The Dog Planet   can be found

Premium Member Janice's Basset Hound

Janice's Basset Hound
This dog is so quiet
Bella never barkseats
With her big brown 
    eyes
She will stare at you
If you say a treat
She gets excited
Then eats it quickly
When she wants to 
     sit
Upon the love seat
She will stare at you
Till you notice her
Taping the cushion
She will quickly jump
Settle down -then nap
She is so content
Form: Verse

Premium Member A Famiy Dog Passes

Bailey is getting worse
Her illness is cancer
She is brought to the vet
We gather around the bed
Everyone pets Bailey
With tears being shed
Everyone says goodbye
While the vet doctor 
Injects the final shot
A Basset Hound so sweet
She will be missed by love ones
Such a gentle dog and quiet
She was loved by all
A dog like her will be 
Remembered always
So difficult to say good bye

Premium Member This Is Ridiculous

Pups followed her home from this place and that.
She had bulldogs, basset hounds, and puppies so fat.
They followed her inside and lay down on her bed.
The mattress was cozy underneath each little head.

Her almost suiters were astounded to see the scene.
They said, “This is ridiculous!” One sounded quite mean.
You do not understand, she said. Here, I am the queen.
And my love for dogs and puppies is immensely keen.

Premium Member Bobblehead Bouncy Beau

Born beautiful, bacon breath,
Beau, besides being boisterous,
basketcase boggles,
batty behavior,
bounds beyond boundaries,
brazen barking bravado,
bane of UPS drivers bringing boxes,
bowling bewildered brother canine bedfellows,
befriending beagles,
basking beside bashful basset hounds,
belabors begging beef at table,
bedazzled by butterflies,
bobblehead bouncy Beau,
basically befuddled,
becalmed by bedtime biscuit,
beloved baffling beastie!

A Quietly United Friendship

me and my spaghetti sandwich
watching you plant flowers grown by your tears
me and my four cheese garlic bread
watching you climb a tree inspired by an untold loss
me and my brown sugar bacon baked beans
watching you listen to your basset hound howl at the silent siren of your blues
me and my butterscotch dipped cone
watching you walk slowly over to where i am to use my shoulder as your memory foam comfort pillow
you and i and our rare occasion settlement etched in temporary stillness
