Look Here Beau

 


It was NOON thirty, lunch was done.
The sun was shining so outside we did run.
Mama was sat in her chair; daddy was sat in his.
I was on my mat; this is just how it always is.


I heard the words I Always hear,
Mama said to me, Beau Look HERE!
I thought in my mind, talk to the back of my head,
You know just how much the camera I dread.


You can tell by the photo, I did not look there,
Butt  I did look somewhere!


I turned my big, beautiful head halfway around, 
I refused to obey all her sound.
I did think how thankful I am for outdoors, and for Mama and for Daddy and for sunshine and my ugly black mat.
I am truly thankful for all of that!
I am NOT thankful for cameras, or women who hold them,
butt i am thankful for people who come to behold him.
Him is ME but Me doesn't rhyme!
She wants me to rhyme all the time.
SHE got UP and..............

I always love reading your rhymes.
Enjoy that mat and don't worry about looking right at that camera.

Cute poem and photos Beau! I am camera shy too. Your Mama will keep trying to take your photo, you should just give up and smile at the camera.
HUGS, have a happy day!

We enjoyed your poem telling the tale of the picture taking and are now on pins and needles waiting for the rest of the story.

Oh, Beau!
Your Mama Loves you so,
She just wants to capture your handsomeness
For all the world to show their thankfulness
for all the stunning photos she shares.

That's funny. I don't know why they mind the photos. It's not like we are using a flash.
