Dotty doggy duo, daily derring-do,
descending leaves decorating yard,
Beau-black as coal,
brown-eyed batty Gus,
barking brazenly, bounding,
both bonkers?
a boisterous, "You betcha!"
Kings of calamity-
canines of chaos,
squirrels scurry for sweet sanity,
scolding silver September
acorn gatherers,
sedulously seeking sedatives!
Tonight feels just right
though the moon is uptight
Still the stars do shine bright
There's plenty of light
And perhaps way out there
roams a big grizzly bear
a wily fox on the prowl
or a macabre screech-owl...
No, I tell myself, do not be afraid
only cowards mistakes haven't made
I crumple up my paper, put down my pen
sneak under the covers ~ fast asleep before ten!
Emma, Empress of Unicorn Empire,
esprit de corps of elementary school,
expeditious at exaggerating expression,
eagerly extending empathy of enormous embrace,
endless enthusiasm, exuberant existence.
Deacon, Duke of derring-do,
diligently, doggedly daily to delightful displays
of dauntless daredevil, destruction,
determined gamer, droll demeanor,
dearly dedicated to devouring desserts,
Dad's double, diplomat of Dreamland.
'Twas spring and time for one wee lad to choose
Just what would be his brand new Easter shoes
Now tight inside them, white and tan and laced
Gloss saddle shoes had found him happy-faced
So, not one moment would he waste to muddle
Then headed he, straight for his fav'rite puddle!

Dead of night
thoughts of you
length and breadth
our derring-do
love overwhelms
flooding through
emotions swirl
as I cling to you
