I took dad to the beach today…by Rufuz

Poem Artwork

He didn’t want to get out of bed,

So I dribbled cold water onto his head,

That’s what my mommy to do said,

Not long after that we were on the way to the beach,

You see now that of an old dog further tricks you can teach…

 

He took me to see my aunt,

Then to the beach we went walking,

To me on the way he didn’t do much talking,

I guess I could’ve before we left, let him smoke a bit of his plant…

 

But still once arriving, a good time was had by us both,

It rained a bit on the beach, but to mom I honored my oath,

I got him to walk at least a half mile,

And got him to run and play with me evoking a smile,

We really had a darn (sorry ladies) good time,

And a nice drive we had down and back,

Good times Daddy & I together never lack…

Sweet WOOFies to you, Rufuz! You always find a way to boost Dad's psyche...and mine, too; thanks for the smiles...I'm needing 'em lately :o)
Blessings and Love - Micke

Did you give him a bath while you were in the water? Ah well maybe next year. This a fine picture of you by the way. Jasmin Horst

RUFIE - while Dog may be Man's Best Friend - the reversal may not be as self-evident.

Daddy's especially, get so wrapped up in their 'problems' and stresses, that they forget to take time to smell the roses - (and even Hinies ) -

So, it is important that you continue to drag his weary fat ARSE outdoors to take a break n' git some R&R - If'n yew kin help him git some 'other stuff' too (from a Venusian, no less) - it could be great THERAPY!

Keep up the good work! Unka Tom.

OH yeah, it also dawned on me that his aversion to WATER could be a sign that he is really a CAT - ewe no - a big PUSSY! sssssssh - don't let him no that yew no!

Hi Rufuz, you're such a goooood doooog! You take such good care of your dad. Don't you think you should get him out more often? If not, then maybe just cold water on the face, eh? You're such a goooood dooooooggy!

In Spirit,
Bear

Rufuz, when he is smoking grass better you stay wind side of Daddy or that half a mile will be flying time for you too.
