Hello Jim, what a very
charming and humorous
rhyming poem about a
mischievous little boy. I loved
this cheerful Sunday morning
treat. All the best to you!

This is very funny. I didn`t have a 6 star left otherwise it would be in your pocket. Some how, I could see this poem being written by a technical writer/programmer. Hilarious.

    Thank you. Yeah, we programmers were a scrungy bunch!

I like your little guy and his dog too. I think you just described my grandson. The poem flows well, moved forward with good rhyming and such a sense of fun (and underlying affection). Well done.

    Thank you so much, Ginda! One of my grandsons is like this too. The other is Mr. Fastidious.

    Thanks so much, Roy. When I was a kid, my dog used to lick the boogers out of my nose. Maybe that's what inspired this poem!

Fantastic. I'm still laughing as I am responding/reviewing.

Every line had another issue Ruth his hygiene and they rhymed each and every time.

Excellent post, my friend!

    You're very kind. Thanks, John!

    When I was a kid, my dog used to lick the boogers out of my nose. Perhaps that's where I got the idea for this poem!

LOL As a mother who raised four boys who could care less about hygiene or clean rooms, I laughed out loud at this poem. I'm sorry and although a SLIGHT aggeration, it has a lot of truth to it

    That's funny. My mother raised 3 boys, and if still alive would probably attest to about the same! Thanks for the good review, Barbara.

This was really a fun little poem. Dogs don't care at all, do they? We can be as gross or lazy as we want so long as we feed and pet them. Your rhyming poem was very cute. But, seriously, take a break and go shower. Gretchen

Your poem reminded me of Shel Silverstein, and that's great! It was so funny, and the ending was so cute. Thank you so much for sharing, and best wishes to you.

    Thank you so much for the great 6-star review, Jessi! It reminded me of Shel, too, when I wrote it. I loved his poems and his simple line drawings. Wish I could do that.
