Notice of absence from Doggerel Dave
Not absent - still here!
Keep Calm and Carry On Poeming. 😂
Not absent - still here!
Keep Calm and Carry On Poeming. 😂
That dog next door, he drives me spare;
Yap yap all day makes my life hell.
This mutt’s damn noise inflicts despair,
Disturbs the peace, and me as well.
Really small but with nagging sound
He chases non-existent foes.
Very conflicted, aren’t you hound?
You’ve sabotaged my daily doze.
Come on, tell me why such a row?
That presupposes you could speak:
“Once a noble wolf, but not now –
Man did this, he made me a freak.”
But there's more:
The Guest
My room had a mouse in a hole;
Lived there quite comfortably I felt,
Seemed such a solitary soul,
Just appeared happy where he dwelt.
Matters Arising: Was it ‘he’?
Are there mice which live on their own?
If so I thought I’d let him be
That is as he lodged there alone…

Lots of fun! Man driven crazy by dog in Australia.......... you're not so far away now as this is so relatable..... cute little Aussie mutt and mouse - I've done my travelling for the day!
G'day Lorna: glad you enjoyed this trifle. It's great when a simple bit of fun can transcend boundaries of oceans and nationalities so easily. As for travel, you can't hope for much given the state the world is in at present. Take care.
(Too much of a downer? Sorry!)
Two good fun writes Dave. Can you maybe set the mouse onto the dog.😉

I kinda liked these DD .. well slightly .. but very much enjoyed ...........

Neville: Slightly? I have more than passing suspicion that you may be the owner of a small dog...
So briefly: If I could have a dog (can't - impractical in the second floor of a block of flats where animals don't happen) it would probably be small ( a Jack Russell for preference).
Then there's an issue with puppy farms which doesn't seem to be resolved now or in the near future.
Also, this was an argument I put out to others who were complaining.....
Anyway, thanks for another resurrection, JC.
... I have a Border Terrier who answers to the name of Brulee Bru Bruiser Parsley Parsnip P ******* 🙂
Don't know if these critters are still around but it seems that we coexist with many creatures. Hope his yaping has calmed by now and hope that the mouse has not enlarged his family.
