These Wonderful PetsA Poem by Carl J JohnsonSome thoughts of a man thinking of the time when he was a little boy.
When I was just a little lad,
my life was great, not gray or sad. My closest friend, brown Teddy Bear, what could I do without him there? Among the toys that lay around, there was one little, made no sound, a rag doll, threadbare, not so new, but loved so much by quite a few. A princess, sweetest of them all, she had a terrifying fall, chopped down above from shelves so high and broke so fast, we heard no sigh. I had a dream, above them all, a pet to cuddle and to call, a puppy`s love is what we need, a friend to care for and to feed. © 2010 Carl J Johnson |
