Little Beggar

He comes to our house
Begging for handouts
Almost daily. Bandit’s
Favorite foods are
Chicken hot dogs and
Purple grapes. He’s
Been coming to our
House for about two
Years. I don’t know
What the lifespan is
Of a wild raccoon. We
Hope Bandit will be
around for a long,
Long time.

Loss of a Pet

They were our friends and
Playful companions and
Were always loyal. Dogs
And cats were the most
Prevalent pets that had
These traits. But one
Day, or a period of time,
Our furry companion
Gets sick or gets an
Irreversible physical
Condition that can’t
Be fixed. Signs point
To time to say goodbye.

Happy Puppy

There is nothing  like a puppy
To brighten up your day,
Especially a happy one. They
Jump up and down when they
See you and that wet tongue
Goes to town. To avoid getting
A bath with his tongue you
Distract him by throwing
Him his favorite toy. Dogs
Don’t know why they are
Happy, they just are.
