The Hug Token.
Today, I had the feeling I needed a hug.
So, I hugged a mom…
…then I hugged a friend…
…why, I even hugged a taro plant…
…because sometimes, we all need a hug like that.

Silly Samantha Sunday.
…because sometimes it’s just nice to lie around with a buddy.

The Birth of PuppyDoc.
Once upon a time there existed a doc
who had a pet cat and listened to Bach.
This doc was described as, ‘fun, loyal, and lovey,’
therefore she eventually was dubbed the name ‘Puppy.’
In general, this Puppy lived quite a blessed life,
but a life of high pressure and occasional strife.
She loved her profession and for this she was glad,
but certain times events would make her feel sad.
She cared for her patients and strived to make them well,
So when they declined, she’d be down with no one to tell.
In a way, this describes how “Musings” was born–
Because poetry was, in a manner, her way to mourn.
But then little by little came some blogging buddies–
so dear and supportive– for this she felt lucky.
So all you should know that she treasures EACH one of you,
for when reading your blogs…why–she can never be blue!
In short…this is how a doc who thinks she’s a dog
winds up creating…a poetry blog.

Ode to a Cat
Oh Saman.
You’re so round.
You just go ’round and ’round and ’round.
Aww Saman.
I like you.
Cause you’re just so fuzzy too.
Though others may giggle
when they see you wiggle,
my heart you kindle
cause you’re just so gentle.
So Saman,
you and me,
buddies for life we’ll be.

A PuppyDoc’s Return.
To that hiatus sweet,
she bids farewell
to rise to her feet
and don her white tail.
For truly did she miss each one of you,
C-dog, Amity…ol’ Noodle too.
Randoms by a Random, WritersDream,
OneSpoiledBacon— uh…Cat, I mean!
To all others I have failed to name,
forgive me, for I am truly to blame.
As I am merely, sadly, only a doc–
a doc who can’t rhyme but thinks she’s a pup.
Pup. Cup. Rupp. Knupp.
Oh dear, now I’ve run amok.
What I meant to say, but failed to do, is…
Happy Holidays to all of you!
How I Wish I Were a Dog!
(by Samantha the Cat)
Oh, how I wish I were a dog!
A wonderfully peppy puppy dog.
Full of wisdom, stature, energy, true-
Full of wonder and curiosity, why, just like you!
Oh, how I wish I were a dog!
Carefree, whimsical, and happy with all.
I would run around, roll, and jump up high,
Fly in the air, fetch, oh gravity, I defy!
Oh, how I wish I were a dog!
Never without grace, my tongue hanging down.
I would grin all day, play, pant, and slobber,
Lick my human’s face? Of course, it’s no bother!
But alas, I was born to be merely a cat…
A simple, ordinary kitty cat.
But I adore my human, and she loves me,
So I guess it’s not too bad, wouldn’t you agree?
My best impression of a dog with a tongue hanging out.
