You know how it is
when you see the one you want
they stay in your thoughts
And your dreams, they do haunt
OMG, there he is
Coming down the street
So sure of himself
His eyes so sweet
The way his tail curls up
Just makes me want to swoon
His ears pointed so
God what am I to do
The sound of his bark
His fur so soft and bright
Should I give him my bone
Would that be right
What should I do
OMG, here he comes
What should I say
That darn cat has my tongue
I watch him look my way
I almost pass out
He wags his tail
I just want to shout
But then he trots by
And sniffs some poodles butt
See I'm not in his league
I'm only a mutt
I guess I am stuck
Eating Alpo at home
While he's with a pedigree
I'll be chasing rabbits alone.

For option #1 Write about love -- in the way that humans experience it but make it about animals! Sad poems are preferable to cheery ones for this option.

This is so cute.
Pretty much exactly what i was looking for in that option -- a poem about animal love that people can relate to. I love the way you wrote this, the last verse is my favourite -- "I'll be chasing rabbits alone." -- brilliant!!
Thank you so much for this entry
