NaPoWriMo Day 26

As i was sitting and wondering what to write about tonight, my dog came and asked me why we hadn’t gone to bed yet. So yes, tonight’s poem is about Ducky. Enjoy!

Our Amazing Puppy

There is a puppy that I love,

This Ducky boy so sweet,

He’s gentle and adorable,

And has the cutest feet.

 

He likes the cooler weather best,

The heat cannot abide,

And when the summer gets too hot,

With his AC will hide.

 

But give him snow, and he will nap,

On my back step with joy,

And he will face surf all around,

Then he’s one happy boy.

 

He’s not a Husky, Newfoundland,

Or Bernese Mountain Dog,

He’s a mostly short-haired Beagle mix,

With sense God gave a log.

 

That’s not to say he is not smart,

He really is quite bright,

He get’s upset if we stay up,

Past his bedtime at night.

 

He’ll lie there in the living room,

And give the biggest sighs,

Then he gets up, stares at you with,

The saddest puppy eyes.

 

He does this ‘cause he knows it works,

Just like at mealtimes,

If I am writing, doesn’t care,

Loves food much more than rhymes.

 

He also is the kind of pup,

Who understands so much,

Attention’s not his big demand,

Content with just a touch.

 

If you go near, his tail thumps,

His belly rub request,

A back rub or an ear massage,

These things he loves the best.

 

As long as you are near to him,

He’s happy as a clam,

He is our awesome boy and I,

Know just how blessed I am.

Cheers,

NaPoWriMo Day 14

I have a wonderful dog named Ducky. He is my buddy and I wouldn’t change him for the world. He is sleeping beside me on the couch and his snoring gave me the opening line for this verse. Who he is gave me the rest.

Enjoy!

I’m A Lucky, Ducky Dad

There is a puppy sleeping here,

He snores beside me now.

And as he sleeps I wonder that,

I am so blessed somehow.

He is an awesome friend to me,

This puppy dog of mine.

When I’m upset he always checks,

To make sure I am fine.

When I am cross or speak to harsh,

He never judges me.

He looks so sad it melts my heart,

I cannot angry be.

With his soft head upon my foot,

He sleeps now on the floor.

When he hears someone on the walk,

He rushes to the door.

He jumps around and runs about,

Like he’s gone quite insane.

He’s just so happy to see them,

I once again explain.

If you should come to visit me,

You’d better sit down quick.

So he can jump up next to you,

And give your ear a lick.

So thanks my boy for all your love,

How’d I get so lucky?

To have you come into my life,

My pup, you’re my Ducky.

Cheers, Winston

NaPoWriMo Day 17

Just a quick ode to my dog.  He is an amazing pup who fills my life with joy.

 

Ducky Dog

My pup is such an awesome boy,

he’s loving and so sweet.

And he is handsome as can be,

from ears down to his feet.

 

His face can say a thousand things,

that words can never say.

He’s cleverer than many dogs,

in his own Ducky way.

 

We are so lucky he is ours,

perhaps we’re his it’s true.

The truth is somewhere in between,

to give my pup his due.

 

So thank you Duck for who you are,

you are the very best.

For us, no other pup would do,

though we’ll still pet the rest.

 

Cheers, Winston

 

NaPoWriMo Day: 10 My Puppydog

NaPoWriMo sees me changing gears yet again. Today is all about my dog Chester. Anyone who’s been reading this blog for a while will probably have seen him here before.

The other day I was sitting on my couch debating what to write my next poem about. As I was pondering, Chester shifted around on his bed to lie on my feet. This poem came out of that moment.

Enjoy!

My Puppydog

There is a puppy on my feet
As sweet as he can be.
We are the very best of friends
My puppy dog and me.

He’s always glad when I get back
He rushes there to greet.
If we’re gone long we always bring
Our puppy dog a treat.

He loves the snow and loves his walks
Loves napping in the sun.
A bunny chase, a nice car ride
My puppy dog finds fun.

We are so very lucky for
As puppy people know.
There’s no limit how much love
A puppy dog can grow.

Cheers, Winston
