Xena’s Floating Cabin on Thankful Thursday

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia

Xena: A BIG thanks to Angel Brian, who is hosting Thankful Thursday, as well as Angel Sammy for the great picture every week! Except for the week we were both having trouble with evil WordPress. Grrr. Fritz went home to his family on Tuesday, so I didn’t tell him he’s gonna miss being in this blog. I am taking back control of MY blog. Here goes!

Xena’s Cabin Adventure

I was sleeping in our cabin when the rain began to pour.
I awoke when it grew much heavier than it was before.

On a little hill our cabin sat so sturdy, safe, and sound,
Till the rain turned all the hillside to a river made of ground.

Then our house went slowly surfing on a wave of mud and clay,
And it splashed into the lake and simply floated there all day!

I could say that I was scared and wished my dear Mommy was here,
But, truth be told, I raided the fridge and drank my Mommy’s beer.

Eventually a big boat came and pulled our cabin to shore.
I’d do the whole thing over if the fridge was stocked once more.

The End

Xena: Now I’m on to my thankfuls…hmmm. I’m thankful that Fritz was here and we played together. And I’m thankful that Fritz has gone home. Oh, and I’m thankful that I get to go to my folk’s ballroom dance lesson after me and Mommy leave work today. I’m going to watch so that I can dance as good as Angel Lexi!

Chia: I sure wish I got to go all these places. *sigh* Oh, well, I’m still thankful for the same things about Fritz as my sis Xe is. And I’m thankful for the warm, sunny weather we’ve been having, with no rain.

Lucy: I’m thankful that I’vc been stone-free for over a week. And I’m thankful for all the nice people who came into the church where I get to work one day a week with my Mom. They pet me and tell me how pretty and sweet I am *big wags*. Thomas the mailman there is on vacation, and there’s a young lady delivering the mail. I went out to greet her and she pet me and pet me and gave me a treat (I think my Mom gave it to her to give me…).

Xena: That about wraps it up, friends. Oh yes, we are all thankful for all of y’all!! Happy Thursday!!!

    I could say that I was scared and wished my dear Mommy was here,
    But, truth be told, I raided the fridge and drank my Mommy’s beer.

  13. I don’t really drink beer, Miss Ann and June. It was all made up. But Angel Lexi loved beer floats and also kalua. Mommy had to hide the kalua bottle. One of her friends bough Lexi a bottle of kalua without any alcohol. I wonder if they make beer without alcohol… *wags* Xena

  20. Xena you really did a SUPER DOOPER job with your poem! Especially where you snuck a drink of your Mama’s beer. Tee Hee. How nice your temporary mail lady gave you a treat…..that was extra swell of her to make friends along her route. Thanks for playing along with us for poetry day. We always look forward to you all because you’re such great poets!

    Big Huggies, Teddy (and Mom)
