Thanks to Oz the Terrier and Haiku by Ku for hosting this dog challenging event. It definitely got some rust off my brain cells! Ku just published his book! If you don’t know him stop by his blog to find out all about his story and how to get his book.
This was a super tough assignment for this dog. I think I am a pretty decent writer but I have no idea about poetry and this had me frazzled. I got lots of books to study with but it was still a tall order. I did my best, how do you think it came out? Am I a good candidate for the Bad Poetry Day Contest?
Bravo Bravo Emma, fantastic 🙂 have a wonderful weekend 🙂 xx00xx
Mollie and Alfie
Thanks, you too!
We too say bravo, bravo Emma. Clap,clap,clap. Have a fabulous Friday.
Best wishes Molly

Thanks a lot, piggie pals 🙂
Emma is a poet and now we all know it!
Maybe you should enter…not bad!
So cute! 😀 I love the photo that goes along with it too.
Thank you 🙂
Well I think that was darn good Emma!
Thanks for the kind words and well wishes for our Dad, he is already doing so much better!
My Gramma had a stent 3 years ago, but it was a bit more serious I think. Take good care of him!
Oh Emma…first, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the photo of you with all that crinkled up paper and those poetry books. You are such a darling!!!
I have to say, that was pretty good for a first poem. I don’t know…I think Ku and I will have a hard time choosing winners. BOL
Thank you for participating in our contest!!

Thanks for having it…mentally challenging for this dog, but fun.
Hee-Hee that’s pretty good for a first time Emma. I think it was good and not bad though.
I know but it was harder to try to make it bad, so I figured if I was writing, I may as well make it nice.
Excellent poem!!! Well done! Love that picture too, very clever!
Thank you…I like to be clever 😉
Very good, Emma! You are quite the poet.
I think that is an awesome poem Emma!
I’ve nominated you for the Supersweet Blogger and Versatile Blogger Awards! Click the link to learn more about the awards on my blog – http://peppino2005.wordpress.com/2013/08/16/awards/
Wow, Emma, our boys and Amelia never thought of studying up on the subject… You are quite the intellectual prose-y GBGV!
Thought I would give it a whirl 😉
It’s the best! ..or the worst? Not sure how to properly show support for a “bad” poetry contest but either way I think you nailed it.
I wasn’t sure either, so I just wrote an everyday, ordinary poem.
Pawesome Emma! Love the pic too! And thanks for mentioning my book! Wooooowoooooo, Ku
Sharing is caring and makes the world go around 🙂 Thanks for hosting this hop!
Love it!
🙂
That’s just great – I love it! That’s brilliant poetry!
Not bad for a first try.
This is so fun! I think you might have a new career ahead of you!
Oh heavens…I think I better stick to writing stories, but thank you 🙂
Emma, you are a regular Emily Dickenson…such talent.
There goes my ego blowing up, Mom won’t like that!
Nicely done!
Thank you!
Oh my doggie! Love the poem, love the picture!
Thanks Kirby!
Goodness Emma, you’re quite the poet! I don’t know about Bad Poetry Day. Your poem’s probably too good to be considered bad by any stretch. And I love that picture! You in those glasses makes me smile!
Your poem is awesome Emma! You’re a poet and didn’t know it! BOL!
Goodness, it sounds like you may be too!
That’s a great poem. I think you look very smart in those glasses with all those books!

One smart poetry pup, now that I have studied up on the subject 😉
I think your poem is perfect for you. I used to think poetry was impossible for me and admired people who wrote it. I still admire them but, after taking a poetry class, I realize that I CAN write poetry. It was very draining for me to do so though. I think that it comes easier to “poets” or they enjoy the labor more 🙂
For some just writing is hard, but maybe like bloggers just write, poets just think in rhymes and write? It was not easy.
Great poem, Emma!
Aaarrrrooooo!
Hehe all the dogs seem to love squirrels!
Oh yeah…squirrels are fascinating and frustrating!
Emma, you really went all out doing your research and such. Great job. But if the poem was supposed to be bad, I don’t know, it seemed pretty good to me! 🙂
I know, but Mom says I need to be a good dog, so I figured I better write a good poem, but it is surely not that good!
I like to write, but I’m no poet, that’s for sure! I’m very impressed with your poem, Emma! It’s not “bad” at all! Cute picture!
Writing is more fun for me too but it was fun to try. I’m sure that for some, poetry comes naturally.
Emma – um – you have to make more of an effort if you want your poetry to be “bad” – you are obviously a natural. 🙂
Writing bad is very hard!
I kinda like your poem Emma! Maybe you should have written it before studying all those fancy books!
It came out okay, but I think I will stick to regular writing. I had to study up so I would know a few things about how to even start writing a poem!
hehe thats what wabbits are for distraction,xx Speedy
And believe me, you wabbits get me in lots of trouble with that distraction!
Well done Emma!!! You are a very pretty GBGV…and an excellent bad poet
hugs madi
Why thank you!
Great bad poem Ems:-)
Thanks, Misaki!
You have done and admirable job and should make GBGV’s around the US proud:)
I try my best 🙂
Very cute, nit bad at all! 🙂
It came out better than I thought it would.
BOL!! I loves your bad poem Emma!! I don’t knows thou, I thinks it’s too good to be so Bad!!
Kisses,
Ruby ♥
It was so hard to write really bad!
I like anything that rhymes. 🙂
I don’t know good or bad. But it rhymes and has Rhythm! So it’s excellent!
Thank you!
That was great and super picture. Congrats on your win.
Thank you and thanks for stopping by!
Cute poem, nothing like exercising your brain a bit and dogs are a good topic anyway.
At first it was tough, but then it did turn out to be fun!
