Puppies, puppies everywhere.

Come and get one. I will share!

Black and white ones, brown ones, too.

Some with spots, there's one for you.

They love to play and nip and roam,

But most of all they want a home.

So come on by and see them please,

and take one home; they don't have fleas!

It's turtle season once again.

I see them as I drive.

Small and round and big and flat

and some are still alive!

Turtles can't help that they must cross

that paved great divide.

And shells are no protection

if from autos they must hide.

So be mindful mother nature,

she dictates where they go.

Don't aim for them as you drive by,

or may your murderous tire blow!

I'm up way too early,

to see what can be done.

If creative juice is flowin'

with the risin' of the sun.

The girls are lightly sleepin'.

I'd best keep noises down,

if Mama wants to write some lines

'fore little ones abound.
