Katy


So it happens to be Friday and its my dog day!! Last week I introduced you to my dog Jake.This week you are going to learn a little bit about my dog Katy. She is the oldest and darkest of the bunch. She is about nine years old, compared to Jake who is five, and is a dark chocolate color. We got her as our first family pet. She was actually a surprise to me also. I came home from school one day and there she was sitting on a chair in our living room, wet from the bath she just had. she wasn't as young as Jake was when we got her so we didn't really have much of a puppy stage with her. We got her at about six months old. Originally we thought she was a chocolate lab puppy so we bought her a really big food bowl and watering dish. But as the time past and she didn't grow too much taller we figured out that she was a terrier mix. But watching her you can really see the terrier traits she does have. one being she loves the chase. Anytime a small animal( or a large one, whatever she happens to spot) comes through our back yard she goes nuts barking, and fogs up our back door. She is definitely our watch dog. So what does she look like? Well she is small, only about thirty pounds and comes to my knee( I'm short) which puts her at about twenty inches tall. Not our smallest dog but certainly our smartest. She learns new things every day and always finds ways of getting out of trouble, like laying at your feet or sprinting to you when you have to use the stern voice on her. She may be naughty but she is so darn cute with her big brown eyes it is really hard to get mad at her. Now over the years I have grown a bit of an immunity to her charms but no one else has so I guess its for her own good. She is the only dog we paid for but I can truthfully say she was worth every penny.

Acrostic

Ok these soud like they could be a lot of fun! An acrostic poem is a poem where the first letter in each line in order makes a word or phrase.
EX: -Sam has
-A bike that
-Might be just like mine.

The first letter in each of the sentences spelled out the name Sam. Normally the word or phrase is relavent to teh poem but doesn't have to be.
I hope you try writting these! They don't have to rhyme or anything :) get creative!!

Golden


A good man is golden.
He is worth any price.
A good woman will refine his gold.
With a rock that sparkels like ice.
They will be beautiful together
and will make a ring.
It will be their life and their love.
It will be their everything.
They will make a promise '
to wear every day.
They will stay side by side
Never to doubt or sway.
This gold is for everyone
and anyone to own.
It is two becoming one,
Never made alone.

You are my balloon.
You lift me higher then a kite can fly.
You are my wings.
You never fail to satisfy,
My need for adventure or my desire to explore.
And with this said I can ask no more,
Of your arms like a safety net or hands of gold
Which are something special and mine to hold.
Your eyes are blue waters
when life brings a drought
Your heart in a comfort when I doubt.
Say no more but say no less.
I have something to confess.
I am nothing with out all these things.
So thank you for everything especially your wings.
