Your body’s surrounded by nature’s lotion
While your mind fills up with pure emotion

Dogs 1

“Dogs are my favorite people” Richard Dean Anderson

Cats ans Dogs 

Cats and Dogs
Put them in a box
What secrets untold
Before you unfold
When the box is opened
Only keep hoping
There is no other agenda
Are they friends or enemies
Or just plain frenemies
That is the age old dilemma
Of Cats and Dogs

Mundane Monday

Monday, Monday
Where art thou Monday?
Yesterday it was Sunday
Soon the day turns to Tuesday
Did I miss Monday?
Perhaps, I thought of a different day
Simply, because the sunshine carried me away
Oh Monday, Monday
Why cannot it always be a fun day?
