The Girls' Poetic Walk and Our 100th Post!

Annabelle's Poem

Out for a walk
Just Maddie and me
I tossed out a bet
She'd be first one to pee

Maddie marched on
all happy and smug
She only stopped once
to just sniff a bug

I waited and watched
and walked on quite proud
when all of a sudden

Mom said something out loud

"We have to go home"
she said to our dad
"I've gotta go fast
and I've gotta go bad"

How could Mom do this
I barked loud and clear
It just wasn't fair
and our house wasn't near

So needless to say
I lost the big bet
But Mom got home
Before she got wet!

Maddie's Poem

　

Annabelle's bark
is worse than her bite
Yep she lost her bet
and there wasn't a fight

She didn't try hard
to continue our stroll
cause when we got home
she spotted a hole

Belle knew that to dig
was far better yet
than what she could win
from her ridiculous bet!
　
　
　
　

And the hole that she dug

was behind a fine stone

and I knew it was best

to just leave her alone.
