Chia: I’m thankful for Angel Brian, who is hosting Thankful Thursday, as well as Angel Sammy for the picture every week. Let’s see what Angel Sammy has in store for us today. Oh, and you’ll notice I hopped into the picture! *whole body wags*

You Can’t Have “Be Mine” by Chia
I’m hiding out here from a schnauzer named Xena.
She thinks she’s a princess and maybe a queena.
Just me and my doxie, too pretty for words;
Up here we both sit amongst wet pigeon turds.
My Bro Drew lives here with all of his stuff
E’en though it’s too much he thinks “Never enuf!”
And so it flows over and out and around
Until none of his dumb things can ever be found.
Scaredy cat Xena won’t climb up this high
To steal my dear doxie and then justify
Her actions by saying I steal her stuffed toy.
Heck, it’s just a schnauzer that gives her no joy.
What’s that I hear? It’s the dinner bell!
It’s Mom who is calling, do you hear her yell,
“Come home my dear jackshund, bring your brother too.
You’ve got a new stuffie and fresh rabbit stew.”
The End
Xena: I don’t like your poem. I changed my mind. I want to do the poem this week.
Chia: Too late! Everyone’s read it and you’ll look like a dork if you do that.
Xena: *Trots into bedroom with a determined look on her face*
Lucy: Never mind her, Chia. It was a good poem and full of truth, too, BOL!
Chia: Yep. That’s why she didn’t like it. So whatcha got to be thankful for today, Lucy?
Lucy: I’m thankful I’m allowed to sleep in the big bed, especially with all the storms last week and this week, too.

Xena, returning from bedroom with a picture: I am thankful that I went to work with my Mommy on Monday. I greeted a lot of people (who all liked me) and I worked really hard. When Miss Nancy finally got out of my chair, I hopped up and took a well-deserved nap.
Well, that’s all for today, folks. I hope Chia’s learned that she can’t be dissin’ me. I gotta go now and chase her through the house. XOX Xena

Chia: Thanks BellaDharma! And yes, Xeboo really is a scaredy. Just ask Lucy…she won’t lie.

Awww, thanks. She’s my baby. Actually, it’s Lucy who people want. You should see her greet folks with a big grin on her face and her whole body wagging! Maybe I can get a video of it to post.

It’s a good poem, Chia…sorry Miss Xena thought it hit a bit too close to home. But at least she was able to go to work with your mom and it looks like she earned a well-deserved snooze.

That’s a great poem, Chia. There’s always something to be thankful for even if it’s a nap in a comfy chair.

My goodness, that was an excellent poem!! (Love the doggie addition to the pic…yes, I noticed!). And I love that pic of Xena sleeping on the chair. I just noticed she has the same schnauzer cut as the pup I saw in PetSmart this week. Did I tell you his name was Max? Anyway, looking at Xena I had the same urge to run my hands over her short, sooooo soft body fur. I’ll bet you have people who want to snap her up and take her home with them all the time. It’s so hard to resist!!! lol!!
