Tis’ Brisk This Night & On the Morrow…

Poem Artwork

Sorry to have bored you with un-insulated drool,

Speaking of late about how our home is quite cool,

Well tonight the test for the heaters in home school,

Single digit temperatures have arrived,

I hope I don’t get frozen to my bathroom stool…;-)

 

While walking Rufuz I stopped in the wood,

To take a leak as best in the cold that I could,

Out it came in ice cube form, then to hide,

Back inside under its own insulated hood…;-)

 

Then on the walk towards home,

Rufuz did lay on an iced over puddle,

And rolled around, ostensibly I suppose to himself cool,

My dog really IS quite & totally NUTS,

Oh my God, you don’t think he got that from me, do you,

I mean I haven’t laid naked on an ice covered puddle,

In many years, as it did for me & my butt enclosed brain, muddle…;-)

BRRR!! Just looking at that piccy makes me cold! I wrote a story about the cold (24 here as of this writing!); check it out! :) Well done on this frosty morning; but compared to YOU, we're "WARM"! LOL (And here I be, complaining about 65 degrees! LOL Guess I'll always be a Northern Gal at heart! LOL Somehow, winter with 65 degrees just doesn't cut it with me; I want winter to FEEL like winter! LOL)

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D

I'll be happy to send y'all some 24 degree "heat"! LOL

Do like the French Restrooms,
no toilet-stool to get frozen,
just a hole on the ground.

I love that photo of Rufuz. He will do what he wants. He must like the cold ice. I hope he only doesn't get a cold from that frigidness.
Take good care of him and treat him more than a dog.

Loved your title, Ed! And Rufuz's fun. Um, it was above 60 here in Southeast Arizona, today... :)
