Pets Poems

call it the greenhouse effect or whatever
but it just doesn't rain like it used to.
I particularly remember the rains of the
depression era.
...

It was not dying: everybody died.
It was not dying: we had died before
In the routine crashes-- and our fields
Called up the papers, wrote home to our folks,
...

A moonlight moor. Fairies leading a child.

Male Fairies: Do not fear us, earthly maid!
We will lead you hand in hand
...

One day, I want to melt all gold on earth
And make a wonderful key with it all
This special key of incredible worth
Will be fit to unlock your heart and soul
...

Everybody loves beautiful cats
They have proved worth as pets
Nothing so special but liked by most
Help to build relation if they are frost
...

First snow atop the hill
sends a chill to the spine
it melts down all hopes
for the morning sunshine
...

Every morning in the deep woods of the concrete jungle
With my near and dear ones I sing a coarse musical,
Humans raise from their good night sleep with a frown of unpalatable
They call me ‘Crow’ and express their acerbity with a scowl,

CANINE FELINE FRIENDSHIP – PART I

Once our tom-cat brought to our house,
As honoured guest, his feline spouse.

By this part of the century few are left who believe
in the animals for they are not there in the carved parts
of them served on plates and the pleas from the slatted trucks
are sounds of shadows that possess no future
...

Keep the chair, the pets,
the artwork, the antiques
and I'll even throw in the garden hose
Just as long as my fate, a rose
...

I think that all higher animals - primates, mammalian and ornithic pets, etc. 'think' to a certain extent.

Why do I think?
There is no alternative.

Diwali is a festival of love and light,
Its aim is to live in peace, not in fight.
It is celebrated to recall memory of Lord Ram,
People with sacred body offer God psalm.

Poets make pets of pretty, docile words:
I love smooth words, like gold-enamelled fish
Which circle slowly with a silken swish,
And tender ones, like downy-feathred birds:
...

The Saurashtra Express waits to start
Chained patiently to the platform,
Good pet, while I clamber in
To take my reserved window seat
...

There's a soldier that's been doing of his share
In the fighting up and down and round about.
He's continually marching here and there,
And he's fighting, morning in and morning out.
...

Smokin' my pipe on the mountings, sniffin' the mornin' cool,
I walks in my old brown gaiters along o' my old brown mule,
With seventy gunners be'ind me, an' never a beggar forgets
It's only the pick of the Army

Pets don't want to be cooped up in a pet store forever,
Kids say they will take responsibility for their pets until the real work begins,
Not every pet has the same needs,
They all need to have food and water,
...

They are eating the dogs
They are eating the cats
They are eating the pets
They are eating the wild hogs.

Fast Forward to 2020.

Pets are part of everyone's lives,
But not everyone is a dog person,
People might've been bitten by a dog as a child,
Dogs might look friendly but they might have no manners,

First viewing YouTube on a Sunday morning
She sees animals of all kinds: even lions and tigers
She also sees how owners have been viciously unkind
Leaving their should-be cared for pets behind

Pets love food,
But people sometimes break the rules and give them food from the table,
But people don't care until the vet bill comes in the mail,
Kids love to leave food evidence behind,

The pets

I want to write my will,
All about bones and meat:
...

Human beings are not the only ones who are scared of things,
Pets are scared of things too,
Their owner might be a little kid who has just received a jack in the box for their birthday,
Jack in the boxes have moving parts,

Pets live on food,
We can't do without it,
Dinner is a special treat for some dogs,
Kids accidentally drop food on the floor,
