Gently X Friendly: Snowy!

first bumped into him

sitting on the grass

with another brown skinned doggy

(that was the first and last time I saw that brownie)

while I was walking home

 

threw him some McD’s fries

and it actually frightened him

oops sorry Snowy

 

came back after I unloaded my bag

with the camera ready

this is our 2nd encounter

and Snowy was already 

leaping, and licking

Snowy DogSnowy Dog

 

oh my

all the way until day five

he was practically hugging my thigh

and licking

my white tee got some muddy stain

from his paws

but I did not mind at all

 

so friendly that

it is advisable to stay behind the fence

while feeding

my dad did not allow a pet

since our last dog passed away

more than 10 years back

there were a few dogs way back

Blackie, Lion, Ah Dog

 

but he opened a can of sardine for Snowy

but no pet within the compound

how ironic

 

he has this long scar

from the eye

all the way to the neck

poor Snowy who did it to him

must be some sort of accident

whenever he heard heavy vehicle

such as the waste collector’s truck

he would run

hey little kid

guess what

I miss you already

the whole day

hope someone will adopt you real soon

no.. then you will no longer be (partially) mine

it would be just perfect if

I am your new adopter

 

talk to my dad, Snowy

talk to him

Heart Beats X Missed: Mid Age Love Crisis

The week didn't start good
Bumped into my dream boy
Since 6 years back
Supposedly a happy occasion

Wait a minute
He was pushing a baby stroller
With an oversized baby boy,
It's tall child in there

And the child was wearing that kind of
Ralph Lauren chambray
Which I always wish I could wear one
On my baby boy

And behind the stroller
There was another girl
Both children are beyond the age of toddler
Speaking so well
With their daddy? In English

And wait a minute
There is another woman
Carrying a child in her tummy
She is quite pretty
Despite o the bump

I know
I have even mentioned it
That the fact that he is married with kids
Is a possible situation

But kids
2.5 kids fall out of my expectation

Is there a possibility that
Those were niece and nephew

Arrgh whatever it is
He looks like a good father
I know he is

Quoting the consolation advice of my manager
After all
He is someone for me to see
Not for me to eat

Rawr
When is my portion going to be served
Kinda hungry now
And mind you
I will rather stay thirsty and hungry
Rather than drinking the wrong cup of tea

Charlie Brown waited long for the red haired hair
And eventually he is not even sure if she ever exist

Is that the case for my baby blue boy

After Delays X Loads to Say: Marketing Survey

The previous marketing survey with Cheryl
Was at least three months back
Was is in January?

Have a couple of KIV items
Including a Oscar The Grouch tote bag
And a couple of dresses
But nothing much tempted me nowadays
I don't know why
Too anti social to need that much clothes

Ended up buying a card holder
I hate the pain of losing travel card
Loaded with credit
Panics while ransacking train ticket
Got the wrong bus ticket just before boarding then ended up buying a new one
And so much more

And the pencil case
I don't know
The look of it just made me grinned
Something from childhood
Now the look of Wrigley Spearmint
Is more sophisticated

Got a surprise belated birthday gift from Cheryl
And it really looked like the piece I bought
Before I "extracted" the sleeve
Thanks a lot

We actually forgot to take photo together

12 May X Mom's Day: The Homemade Way

Encouraged my niece to
make a card for Her mom
So I made one along
Since materials are available

Years since
I used wooden colour pencils
Thank goodness they invented this
Big fat juicy one
Cover the whole area within minutes

Actually the coloring was kinda messy
The original sketch in b&w
Was the better one
Clumsy hands

And the text doesn't make sense
Mom's Love
Mom Loves
Love Mom

The one I made last year
It was themed after Peanuts gang too
Did I upload it?
Not sure
Time really flies

Years after
Then we could have the whole collection of homemade cards

Work cited:
Woodstock mom's statue
In Snoopy's Street Fair
