A DOG FOR CHRISTMAS
My kids said they wanted a dog for Christmas
a plea which I thought was quite quirky
so I replied in tones most judicious
‘The answer is no, you'll make do with turkey’

Good write and pic M. But in some countries the menu is...... horribly.
Horribly what? Cat?
You made me laugh Michael and that gains a fave for a poem that not only I found darkly humorous (my kind of humor) but also rhymes. In its shortness it packs a punch
M y attention span is such that I rarely write long pieces these days. Thanks 's' 👍
Me neither you are most welcome Michael
🤣 Merry Christmas my dear Michael 🎁 🌭
Ah bless - and a merry Christmas to you too.
Well said.
Thanks Friendship
Delightful! The timeless clash of Christmas wishes, resolved with a pun and a plate of roast dinner. Love it.
Thanks - I trust you are well.

Got a good laugh out of this, my friend. Well done! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Cheers Tristan.
Cheers, Michael!
Many would be happy and satisfied with a good christmas dog stew !
Sausage dog stew? Errr perhaps not - I've got a dachshund who's currently asleep on my lap making it difficult to type this - I don't think he'd look kindly on the idea!
Good fun write Michael, the dog may well eat the turkey though. LOL
