Animals for the Daily Post 

Can’t live without them
That much can be said of ’em
But, if you tried
Realized, it soon got quiet
And, when a new one
Into your home comes
Life restored
And no one is bored
Pets, animals
We are all manimals!

“Like cats and dogs they say,
When the two mixed are at play”

Caturday: Mr Diesel with Vänster the Cat 

Feeling my pockets
My eyes almost popping out of their sockets
I felt the burning notes
In the pockets of my coat

“Fine, deal me in”
I said
Feeling the heat on my cheeks and chin
As the cards were laid
And I knew I would either get paid
Or loose my shirt off!

Caturday: Mr Diesel with Vänster the Cat 

Looking straight at me
Two sets of eyes pinned to see
“If you brought money
Then honey
Take a seat
And let’s see, who’s defeat
This game will be”
The dog told poor little me

Trust me,” Said Mr. Diesel
“This is not a work of a weasel,
But a real game
To light up the flames”

“Yes, the money is also very real,”
Retorted the Vänster
“And we are playing for keeps
Hope you have nothing against it!”

Caturday: Mr Diesel with Vänster the Cat 

“I was just wondering
Out loud to myself pondering
With eyes smoldering
Because of this thick fog
As you two, a cat and a dog
Are creating all this smoke
Maybe I’m in the middle of a joke
Played for pun
Just for someone’s fun”

Mr Diesel and Vänster the Cat
Caught, playing a game of blackjack
“What are you looking at”
The two caught in the act
Stated out like a matter of fact

Fisherman

Fisherman keeps fishing
The water’s depth dishing
Not a moment of the day missing
When he keeps on fishing

Winter Cottage

Buried deep in snow
When the hard winds blow
Life going very slow
Time quicker will not flow
Then all you can say is:
“Doh!”

River Negro

“Ol’ man river
Or in this case River Negro
It shows no mercy
Which surprised Darcy
So just go
With the river’s flow”

Garden Memories

A cliché shot
Is what I got
From the summer this year
Remembering, now that winter is near
Wishing it was summer
But oh bummer
We still have several months
So just enjoy the scones
And something warm to drink
Let the memories sink
And sooner than later
The image from paper
Will turn to reality!
