It's time for the Monthly Poetry Group, hosted by Karen at Baking in a Tornado. Participants write a poem about a topic one of us chose. This month, i chose If I Were An Animal. Be sure to go check out all the poems.
If i were an animal,
it would not easy be
to make a choice of only one
'cause there's so much to me.
It might be nice to be a cat
since i love them so,
they love warmth and comfort,
and so do i, you know.
It might be nice to be a dog,
a family friendly pet,
although as an introvert,
it's likely not my best bet.
It might be nice to be a bird
and soar across the skies,
but as much as i like them,
that's not where my heart lies.
A dolphin in the sea is great,
or bigger, like a whale,
to give the watchers joy
as near me they might sail.
But if i could retire from work,
i would not be wroth
to wake one day and find myself
turned into a sloth!
