NaPoWriMo 7 April 2012: Reminder

NaPoWriMo 2012, New/unpublished poems, Poem a Day 2 Comments »
Here's today's poem.

Enjoy!


Reminder

As you welcome me home each evening
always in a happy mood,
as you stretch, full belly, yawning
after gulping down your food,
as you listen, or ignore me,
as you lick my salty skin,
as I slip a collar round your neck:
remember who's top dog.

    *Going well Jen. Nice to see a doggy poem instead of all those cat ones (not from you). A different type of dog to my "Dog from Hell". Wonder what would happen if we introduced them.

    I did mine last night and thought I'd posted it, but it went into a black hole. I put it back up this morning. Now have to do one for today. As you say, its tough, this poem a day lark.

    *Thanks Mike, I'm definitely not a cat person so any cat poem I'd write would probably outrage all the catophiles out there!

    I think your 'Dog from hell' would have my underdog for breakfast.

    I had wondered where yours got to, was delighted to read it.

    Now for today's one....better get cracking (eggs) on it.
