this is so lovely patty
i'm so glad i came across it
just love
'Oh the joy puppies bring
with their little faces
puppy barks, nips and fun
running puppy races'

i can't have a dog where i live, and it wouldn't be fair anyway as i'm at work all week.... and i believe that animals should have us around more than i'd be able...
but i do miss having an animal friend - you are so lucky

i really like the rhythm of this form
might try it myself
love judy

I don't seem to come to terms with syllables but have had dogs and other assorted animals/pets. I love your poem as it catches an aspect of the life of a pup, even the scratches/nibbles on the hand. Dave.

Very much enjoyed! Even brought a nice smile to my face.
"little teeth leave their mark" This one in particular really made me grin - my cat leaves the same remarks when i am not giving him enough attention :)
Great poem, perfectly written for the ampeletum!
Pets are so much fun...and SOOOO cute!
Thanks for sharing.

I enjoyed this poem about your puppy, Harley. I like that name for dogs. I also love that playing stage they go throught. Mine, Fancy, is going through and she is so cute. Great imagery and emotions you write with. Great job. Your friend, Cody

Hi, Patty:

I'm happy you are putting together a bo0ok on your pets.
Harley a cute little guy. Although we have two dogs that we saved, I'm really not a dog person. I love kittens. We have saved 14 of them. All pets get the works--I'm pet poor. Keep it up---they return more than they receive.

I must confess to thinking ampeletum was describing Harley's tummy until I read some of the other ratings!!! Now I know what an ampeletum is and gosh it sure does put some pressure on you to produce. I think you've done a good job.
Harley looks absolutely adorable - I have a Norfolk Terrier who is just a year old and he is such a character. We also have a golden labrador who is getting on in years but the youngster has given him a new lease of life. x moyramouse
