A dog's day

I love to play

On my own terms

I love my food

Bones are always acceptable

I'm not sure about walking though

I have an inward compass

Indicating one direction

And one only :home

I've got two speeds

Full one running after the ball

Parading is the second

Here I go, proud as can be

The ball caught

Here comes the frisbee

I'm in quandary

Drop the ball and catch the frisbee

What a bother to have only one mouth

Sun setting time to jump in 

My own bed in the laundry

Warm and cosy with my own heat pack!

Goodnight all, let's play tomorrow!

Dragon wisdom

Not a cloud troubled the night sky

Serenity and plenitude filled it

With a clear array of stars

The solar lights on the house lawn

Would undoubtedly be visible

For a million years to come 

At this truth the ancient dragon laughed

Human life was so fickle

There one day,

Gone the following one

No need to rush 

No time to see

As for himself it endured 

Deciphering the night sky

Or sunning in daylight 

Philosophising was the thing

What took a lifetime to understand

Disappeared in a blink

So what was the point of worrying?

Be happy was enough.
