Pet Name

How awkward would it be if you named your pet Charlie or Howard or something that's like a regular person name and then when you met a person with that name and you can't help yourself and the first thing you say after they introduce themselves is "oh hey, you have the same name as my dog." I think it would be awkward...

What would you even say to that? "Cool, I always wanted to share my name with your pet bunny. My life is complete. Now I can live the rest of my life knowing your pet will carry on the name after I die."

Just a thought.

Poem 15

Sadness overflowing

Spreading over me knowing

That I will bend and break and crack

My will too vulnerable

Full of regret and emptiness

A possibility ending

Never to be here again

But there’s no point to this madness

Need control

Mending strength

Tears wipe away

Be here another day

Poem 14

Panda is soft and fluffy
She likes to lick her tummy
And she finds chicken yummy
She's short and fat and funny
She's bigger than a bunny

She licks my comforter every night
And has major issues with heights
With Tyrion she'll never fight
But batteries, hair bands and paper clips she'll bite
And sit on them 'til they are out of sight

Her fur is short and black
A left ear tip she does lack
She'll sneeze, and snort and hack
Petting results with a contented arched back
But pet her tummy and you may get a whack

And over all no matter what you say
Panda will always be awesome even today

Poem 13

There once was a turtle
His name was Fred
Whose life goal was to jump over a bed
Unfortunately his obsession led
To daydreaming, scheming and losing his head
But then one day he met an eagle
Who flew him to the home of Bob the paralegal
And with help from his new found friendship
Fred lept over the bed with a yip and skip

Poem 12

Today I did nothing but sit on my butt
You'd think my imagination was in a rut
It pretty much was
But then a rainbow appeared
And then boomerangs, seesaws and a beard
It was pretty weird
I drew and I wrote and I knit a fine hat
Creativity bounded around like a cat
So some days it helps to relax and rewind
Because sitting on my behind
And watching tv
Can eventually
Make magic happen

Poem 11

Today I sit and think
Thoughts rush through me in a blink
Maybe they'll find the missing link
Between a banana and a sink

I like to wonder and ponder
Imagination overpower humiliation
Growing dreams flowing
To make awesome blossom

Poem 10

Happy Wednsaday everyone

Maybe we should have some fun

Like perhaps in the sun

Or maybe partake in a bun

How about a crumb

But that is dumb

Let’s pretend we won

A truck load of gum

Or maybe just hang out with our mum
