I made a friend today she's as pretty as can be,
Her name I don't remember, she is a friend to me.
She doesn't have to pretty or do hefty deeds,
As long as she listens to my poems, a friend indeed.
...

When a cat loves you it will: nip at your hand,
(it thinks you are food, next meal man.)
When a cat loves you it will: bring you mice,
(it is trying to fatten you up, ain't that nice?)
...

When a cat dies and it goes up to heaven,
What about the two lives plus seven?
(A hard way to rhyme but you see,
I had trouble with heaven so let it be)
...

You are there no matter what and hold my hand.
You do it quietly, no five piece band.
A look or a touch so small and tender,
Sometimes that is all I can seem to remember.
...

A new year is coming, let's hide and lock the doors,
Put the car keys in the safe underneath the floors.
Grab the children, hide them in the closet,
Run to the bank and take out all our deposits.
...

Don't read under the covers if you are all alone,
but most importantly don't answer the phone.
Turn all the lights on in the house,
and please be as quiet as a little bitty mouse.
...

I have the heart of a dragon, for I fear noone,
From the morning till night i will not run.
I have the heart of a dragon, i will fight,
I will fight, i will stand up for what is right.
...

I have a friend who knows computers really well,
All they do for me is make me scream and yell.
I have seen here make one sit up and beg,
For me? I'd do better to fry an old egg.
...

I live for tomorrow of course and then some,
I live to see the rising of a newborn sun.
I live for the love of family and friends,
...

I wrote a poem yesterday and my computer stored it away.
Went to look for it today and this is what pooter had to say.
What poem? I remember no such thing, and are you sure?
...

You cared for me when I was lost,
You cared for me regardless the cost,
When I was flailing trying to live,
You gave me hope, allowed me to live.
...

read my poem or else..I will have a hissy fit,
read my poem or else..i'll write one to fit.
I will write one about you and then,
your life will never be the same.
...

...

I'm serious when I say that I Love You, because I do,
I'm serious when I say that you should love me too.
Can't you see that all I have is yours?
How could you even complain that the hamster snores?
...

Why does love have to be so hard?
Why can't it be a sending of a card?
Why does love bring such turmoil?
Because to love means to spoil.
...

I gave my cat a bath just the other night,
and man can that cat ever bite.
I started with the tail and then the feet,
Then she sliced me up nice and neat.
...

Listen to my story and I will tell of a midnight ride,
Not by Paul Revere but my great uncle who never lied.
He was there on that most famous of nights,
He was the one who decided on using the lights.
...

Legend has it that a poem about thirteen,
Will cause you to lose weight and get lean.
It will take your will to live and make you mean.
Your poems will all end it the same sound it seems.
...

bzzzz goes the phone as it does in silence,
what gave us the right, what license?
What have we become that even our phones,
must be silenced, are we never alone?
...

Why oh why must cows never fly, do you think they might?
Why oh why do camels never cry, do they cry at night?
And why oh why must pigs just live in a pigs sty?
Would'nt they be more comfortable in a mud sty?
...
