Laughing Pup

*Note  –  I apologize for using this same photo of Emma again, but I really love it (because I love her so much). Emma is 11 years old now and is still “the best.”  Also, I wanted to mention that I do have four fingers and a thumb. One finger is just tucked in.

 

There once was a puppy who laughed,

Whose owner was equally daft,

She told the pup jokes,

That she’d heard from some blokes,

Then both of them rocked fore and aft.

Downy Woodpecker

My feathers are scruffed up today,

The breeze has teased them ’round,

I guess what I am trying to say,

I feel like “lost and found.”

 

But take a look here at this roof,

It’s old and quite a mess,

It’s seen some weather, see the proof,

It’s ratty, I confess.

 

In soft, old wood I find a bug,

For when I want to eat,

It only takes a good quick tug,

To spear it nice and neat.
