EXCERPT 1 - THE HUMOR COLLECTION: 

My Every Need

I see the love shine in your eyes,
It’s only then, I realise,
You make the rain clouds all recede, You fill my each and every need. Everything I am is you,

I hope you know I love you too.
My life is yours, I have no choice,
But to respond, to your sweet voice. You guide me to my soft warm bed, Lay me down, and stroke my head. So I may dream the sweetest things, Like squeaky toys, and rubber rings. And when we go off to the park,
For me to run and have a lark.
I know your love is strong indeed, When you can trust me, off the lead!! Woof Woof!

A Sister’s Tale

I’ve got a sister called Marie
She has to share a room with me
She’s not what you’d call clean and neat Then there’s this problem with her feet.

I open windows, spray the place
And wear a medic’s mask, in case The Doctor’s right it could just spread I’ve had to fumigate her bed.

She also borrows all my clothes
I shouldn’t mind though, I suppose Daddy says not to be mean
But I’m size eight, and she’s sixteen!!!

He says that if she meets a man
She might leave home, and then I can Have my room back all to myself
And she can climb down off the shelf. I think he might be dreaming!!!
