Poetry Tuesday

Inspired by my evening...

Never say die!
For as long as I have breath
I'll thread the eye
And sew on the heads
Of the chew toys that lie.

On the ground in a heap
Fuzzy filling at my feet
Doggy slobber not so sweet
Sew the holes, then repeat.

Introducing Ivy!

This is her younger picture from HALO:



Yes, it says Heidi which is what they named her but we wanted to change it. We kicked around Cissy, since she's Baby's new sis but that just didn't fit. Ivy sounds like Heidi so we're going to try that.

New Fav!

And it's currently on tap at Dewey's Pizza!

End of DST

The End of Daylight Savings
By Melville Cane

When I was rich in April
They robbed me of an hour,
But, having many, many,
It was plucking one flower,
Or stealing one penny.

Brooks poured fast,
Flowers pushed thickly,
Hours slid past,—
All too quickly.

But brooks drain thin,
Flowers dry seedy,
Light draws in,
Now I'm needy.

The thief must have learned it
And, giving no warning,
Mysteriously returned it
One crisp morning.

When I was rich in April
Before the early leaves,
Long before this ditty,
I never thought of thieves,
Or that thieves felt pity.
