Where a girl called Miss Bland
Takes respectable gentlemen by the hand,
Or so the tabloids tell!

Gazelle

Graceful as a gazelle.
Tall and slim.
He knows well
That she is not for him.

Perhaps a man ought
Not to sin in thought

For all our lust
Must end in dust
And life is too short
To concern oneself with ought.

There Once Was A Man Named Strange

Who resided in a most ancient grange.
All the furniture was Queen Ann,
And a ghastly ghoul called Dan,
Stalked the rooms of that ancient grange!

With a young lady named Nell,
To attend a conference all about glue!

Introduced me to a girl called Sue,
We went to a little hotel
With a young lady named Nell,
Where I lost a brand new shoe!

Friends of Furkid Friday

Hi everyone. This is Lilie the Westie.

You know what? I love friends! My Cavapoo brother, Logan, and the squeaky things in cages do too.

Yes, blogging counts. If you answered, “Yes,” to both of those, would you like to become a friend of Furkid Friday? If the answer is still, “Yes,” here’s how to do it:
