~> My Dawg Clyde!

Thad Wilk

When I bought Clyde he was six pounds.

Overnight he grew leaps and bounds.

Why he's so huge it just confounds?

And so astounds, and so astounds!

``

Clyde changed my life in many ways,

and from my side he never strays.

Takes up two couches when he lays.

Right there he stays, right there he stays.

``

Clyde eats ten pounds of grits each day.

He eats like a horse in a way.

Sometimes I think I hear him 'neigh'.

Should feed him hay, should feed him hay?

``

When we go out I don't walk Clyde.

I saddle him and then I ride!

One day a pussycat he spied.

I nearly died, I nearly died!

``

Clyde up and took off with a roar.

Rode me through the "closed" kitchen door!

Needless to say I ride no more.

My butts still sore, my butts still sore!~

        Monotetra. Learning form poetry from you Thad. You are an adventurer πŸ™‚ That is one big dog. Looks as though he would eat my Solo for breakfast ( a staffy). Thanks for a fun poem on a cold Saturday afternoon. Happy weekend.

                And once more with feeling, Thad:

                Wot you’ve got there is a hound dog and a half -
                Best take him to the carwash when he needs a bath.
                When his food gets delivered neighbours are quite miffed;
                It’s delivered by truck and bleedin great forklift.

                    Being a dog as big as that could be quite tough;
                    But It's good he felt OK enough to say wuff wuff.

                    Cheers Thad.πŸ‘
