Day17 Glo/NaPoWriMo: For Better Or Worse, A Dog Will Be There For You

Squanto got his big break the day
he sniffed the likes of Fr. Sotti
who took him in, fed him buffet
and sang to him karaoke
Fr. Sotti got stardom the time
from drowning Squanto rescued him
when the golden moon spiked his wine
urged a moonlight plunge below sea

Day Seventeen

on APRIL 17, 2022

Hello, everyone. I hope you’re ready for the seventeenth day of Na/GloPoWriMo
because, for better or worse, that’s where we are!


For the NaPoWriMo prompt
on day seventeen,
eight lines, eight syllables but this time with rhyme:
The 8– Great 8
(from #create your own syllabic form with Colleen)

Happy Writing, Happy Easter, and thanks for reading.

    I have not had a ‘pet’ in a long time. I share in my SIL’s pets…
    Fun story of the ‘faithful’. 🙂

    We were lucky to have an elder at our table (almost 90) and another relative… going through medical treatment… We can only wonder sometimes when we will see them next… sigh.
