  About the Author

  I am just a 62 year old guy that gets to write occasionally as the Lord puts things in my spirit. Ever since I was around seven years old I would wake in the middle of the night with things running through me to write and could never go to sleep until I would get up and write them down. Once I met Jesus as my Savior then I more fully understood the reason. Now I have many books of poem called Ministry in Poem and other books with lessons learned and teachings from God's Word called Colorful Truths.. This particular writing was not the norm for me but for three weeks these would go through me to write. I hope you enjoy these as much as I did in getting to write them down.

  1. All Alone Pupper

  It was the middle of night

  And all was dark

  The poor doggy was sad

  Cause all he could do was bark

  He was tucked away

  In his little house

  No one around

  Not even a mouse

  Nothing to drink

  Nothing to eat

  Not even a blankie

  To warm his little seat

  All forgotten

  With not even a window to look out

  If he only had a voice

  Maybe he could shout

  But who would hear?

  As his master was toasty warm in bed

  Under his covers

  With the pillow over his head

  Guess he will just cry

  All night long

  And hope that the morning

  Will bring him a new song

  He will just dream

  Of days when he was a pup

  And was given love and care

  And food and water in a cup

  The air is cold

  On his little nose

  So he covers it with his paw

  In hopes that by morning it wasn't froze

  Good night cruel world

  Oh woe is me

  Just hope that tomorrow

  Something better will be.

  2. In the Doghouse

  I just got put into my doghouse

  As I was told that I was bad

  I don't know what I did

  Cause I was so happy and glad

  I played in the yard

  And chased a kitty

  I chewed on a paper

  And made confetti

  I barked at the neighbor

  When they took out their trash

  I found a wallet on the sofa

  And chewed up some cash

  I dug in the garden

  Looking for my bone

  I got my paws all muddy

  And pulled the cord from the telephone

  I spilled my water on the floor

  And made a small mess

  I had mud on my feet

  And walked on Suzy's dress

  Someone please tell me

  Was I really bad?

  I am just being a puppy

  What is expected of a pupper lad?

  I can't understand

  What I did wrong

  Why am I out here?

  I wonder for how long?

  Guess I will just lie here and think

  Of a new thing to play

  Because after the night

  Comes another day.

  3. Let's Go For A Walk

  Master, master

  Let's go for a walk

  We should just do it

  And not just talk

  Master, master

  Let's go to the park

  I can go run around

  And at all the other puppers, bark

  Master, master

  It will be such fun

  Just to get out in the air

  And enjoy the sun

  Master, master

  Come on let's go

  Time is a wasting

  Please don't say no

  Oh goodie, goodie

  We are going out the door

  Not that at home sometimes is bad

  But outside I know that there is more

  New things to smell

  New sights to see

  Hey I may even meet

  Some other doggies

  Oh there is a cute one

  Come on master run

  We got to catch her

  Because I think that she is the one

  Such cute brown eyes

  And little wiggles in her tail

  And wow, look at the ears

  I wonder if she is avail?.able

  She smells so good

  From head to toe

  I wonder if her master likes me

  And let her with me go

  We just run around

  And frolic and play

  Oh master

  What a glorious day

  Oh it is time to go home

  I just hate it when down goes the sun

  I got a breath of air, and new girlfriend

  What else gives a pupper so much fun?

  Master, master

  Thank you for the day

  I enjoyed it so much

  That I just had to say

  You're an awesome master

  And I know that you love me

  So thank you Master

  That to you a servant, I choose to be.

  4. Master, I Love You

  I played all day

  I chased many a ball

  For my master I will do anything

  For him I will give my all

  I got the paper

  I rubbed against his stinky feet

  I carried the water hose when he washed the car

  I even opened a package of meat

  I lied on the couch beside him

  And listened to him snore

  I even gave up the covers

  When in bed he wanted them more

  I even barked

  When someone knocked at the door

  I even yelped

  When the flowers hit the floor

  I went swimming in the lake

  To just chase the stick

  I kept real close

  When my master was sick

  I don't really know

  What else a pupper can do

  To really tell his master

  That I love you.

  5. My First Bark

  Whoa! I just made a sound

  I hope no one was near

  It sounds so funny

  In my big floppy ear

  It wasn't a shriek

  It wasn't a howl

  It sounded like a squeak

  Or was it a growl

  It's nothing like I ever heard

  I hope I don't, do it again

  Because I know that if I make that sound often

  My master will put me in the pen

  Oh no! Here it goes again

  As I see another pupper walk by

  Where is this coming from in me

  I am so embarrassed I could die

  Hey wait a minute

  I heard someone say

  Those puppers hark

  Even when they play

  Now I've got it

  It is a hark

  No, that is not it

  I just learned to bark!

  6. On a Hike

  Oh it is nice

  To go on
a hike

  I just peed

  On Billy's bike

  Then there is the tire

  On my master's Ford

  I got to stay busy

  Or I will get bored

  I just made a little puddle

  Don't you know that I have more?

  I must mark my spot

  Oh yeah, there's the kitchen door

  I like fire hydrants

  And then there is a tree

  Oh there is a bush I missed

  So I better pee

  I can pee on a paper

  Or on a rug

  I can pee on the couch

  Or if it would stay still, that little bug

  People just don't know

  What it is to be a pupper tike

  Cause it is important

  Our legs to hike

  Sure is nice

  To be a pupper free

  Till I get caught

  Then it is the doghouse for me.

  7. The Guard Dog

  I am a guard dog

  I guard my master's house

  Nothing can get past me

  Well, except maybe a mouse

  My ears are trained

  To hear every sound

  So I will know

  When someone comes around

  I will growl

  When something is not right

  So you better not show up

  In the middle of the night

  You will be sorry

  If I go after you

  Cause you better remember

  That this dog likes to chew

  You better believe

  That if I catch even your toe

  I will grab hold

  And not let you go

  You will want

  To run in fear

  For you will know

  When I am near

  You better know

  That I'll be your biggest fright

  When come around

  My master's house at night!

  You had best stay away

  Unless you want to mess with me

  For I am the guard dog

  And I am very partial to a human knee.

  8. The TV

  I heard a noise

  I wonder what it could be.

  I know, I have heard

  That a human has a TV

  It's a funny looking box

  With pictures in the middle

  It makes many sounds

  That sometimes will make humans giggle

  It makes sounds

  That puts tears in a human's eyes

  It makes sounds

  That really makes them to cry

  It makes sounds

  That makes them very mad

  It makes sounds

  That seems to make them glad

  I am not sure why they need the thing

  I'm just not sure that it is right

  It is so much better when they play with me

  Because so often when the TV is on, they fight

  I think I'd like it better

  If humans didn't have a TV

  As then they could devote more time

  To just have fun with me.

  9. To Chew

  What do you think

  This puppy likes to do?

  Hey man, it is obvious

  I just love to chew

  I like to chew on the rug

  Or chew on some socks

  I like to chew on a bone

  Or Suzie's locks

  I chew on a toy

  That somehow squeaks

  I chew on the afghan

  Even though it's antique

  I can chew on a shirt

  Or on a dirty a rag

  I can chew on a table leg

  Or a paper bag

  I must stay busy

  So what's a pupper to do?

  I must stay entertained

  So what is better than to chew?

  10. Tug-O-War

  I start to bark

  And roll on the floor

  If am going to get my master's attention

  I guess I must do something more

  I'll run around

  As fast as I can

  I know what to do

  I have a better plan

  I'll go and pull his shoestring

  He will then notice me

  He will play tug-o-war

  And so happy we will be

  It doesn't matter

  How hard that you pull

  I will hold on

  Cause I am like a bull

  You can drag me across the room

  And toss me to and fro

  Because when I am determined

  I will never let go

  If I had false teeth

  You would have a chance to win

  But because these teeth are mine

  You better think again

  C'mon guys

  Let's play tug-o-war

  Besides isn't that what

  A shoestring is really for?
