I am up early and awake! My peom corner... CAT AND MOUSE It is the law. Our cat has caught a mouse. Across the field she trots with squealing booty. She'll bring him up the walk and to the house To show us, I suspect, she does her duty.
Lightly in her mouth she holds his head. A mouse near death and with a pounding heart He knows his time is come. He'll soon be dead His warm gray body will be torn apart. I could scold her for her hunting act and take away the mouse that she has caught To set him free again in distant tract And feed her from a can of food I bought.
I will not disobey the law. I learn How wrong it is to take what others earn.
It is a grim poem... but I like it. We need the author!
I think Sassa should maybe host/author the Poetry Corner blog... would you do it, Sassa? We need something for Tuesdays or Thursdays... could be weekly or bi-monthly?
I can't figure this out. If Monday is only 2 days away, why do people get excited about Friday? I figure people should be more excited about Tuesday since Monday already passed and its 6 days before is shows up again.
Happy Midsummer.. hope you all enjoy your herring and boiled potatoes... at least I did, yup celebrated like a real Swede yesterday.. it was actually a lot better than I expected.. it helps when you wash it down with a little Absolut Vodka.. had a good time.. Hoping everyone is enjoying their weekend..
Thank's guy's. I knew If I asked I would get help. I'm a Redneck, that's why I'm going to see Larry the Cable Guy Tonight In the Dell's. I hope he Is funny, and we don't get blown away by a storm. I think were going out to dinner before hand. KFC. I'm goin for the Double Down.

To show us, I suspect, she does her duty.
Lightly in her mouth she holds his head.
A mouse near death and with a pounding heart
He knows his time is come. He'll soon be dead
His warm gray body will be torn apart.

To set him free again in distant tract
And feed her from a can of food I bought.

Very nice, Sassa. Now I feel sorry for the mouse.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday everybody.

ReplyDeleteMaybe because the weekend is sandwiched in there?
ReplyDeleteSaturday and Sunday are a hard act to follow - unless you're Labor Day, or the 4th/5th of July, or something like that.
I hate to ask this question, but WHO is the Sheriff?
ReplyDeleteToad-wouldn't you like to know...:P
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday! My DH is on the way!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I can get on line. :P
SER sent me this: http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn6/orbscorbs/4k2d7m.gif.
ReplyDeleteDH is Dog Husband? Yay!
I've noticed that you never see the Sheriff and kk in the same room.
You can't pin that sheriff crap on me! At least you can't PROVE it! ;>
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of "who is," have we ever seen Madame Zoltar and any other irregular in the same picture?

ReplyDeleteHahaha... they don't have my smirk emoticon listed. I guess I am unique after all. ;>
ReplyDeleteToad, I thought doubling down was only in blackjack? I hope you let us know how the show goes... remember a few jokes to share.
