Puppy Oath

Written shortly after I got my puppy, Bingley, this past August. I think I wrote this at about 4am on my Blackberry.

The Puppy Oath

I swear not to bite your feet,
Nor to beg when you eat.
I swear not to chase the cat,
Nor to teethe on your brand new hat.
I swear not to chew your shoe,
Nor in the car will I spew.
I swear not to soil the floor,
(Unless I can’t wait one second more)
I swear not to run away,
Nor to ignore each word you say.
The only thing I cannot do,
Is promise not to adore you.

    Cute poem. I had similar thought with Mr. Tumnus

    Nice to see you posting again. It has been a long time.

    Any thoughts on the 40D? 50D?

    I have pondered an upgrade but I think I would chose the 40D over the 50D. The 40D tests better at high ISO’s

    Again…nice to hear from you.
