Canine Christmas

Hi! It's been a while...

Was going through my writing folder, reminiscing... and found this piece which we used in our Christmas cards many years ago. So, in memory of Rusty, and because we got our first snow fall today, I was inspired to post it here. No, it's not my Christmas card for this year. It wouldn't work - Rusty is no longer around, and if he was, I no longer live at that house. Plus, I prefer the paper type and have mine are all addressed ready to be delivered... Now if only Canada Post would cooperate and end the strike.

 

So you think this is cute, too?

Here’s my two bones worth, I don’t!

Just don’t dig it, the way folks

Wish each other a Merry Christmas --

String some catchy phrases together,

Scratch them on a document along

With some supposedly sweet snapshot

And, Woof! Poof! How cool is that?

Here’s the annual Holiday greeting!

Attach, send… good for another year--

Yes, pine and poinsettias are pretty,

But this pooch would like to decide

For himself where to put his paws,

And which props to pose with.

Thank-You very much!

Anyway, it’s not like I have a choice.

So, here’s a Blessed Christmas

And New Year from our den to yours.

 

Love, Rusty and Family
