I told my fish to stop their fighting & they bit each others tails.
I told my kids to stop their fighting & my husband laughed in gales.
I asked the grey cat to please stop drinking my lovely cup of tea.
Smokie looked solemnly at his water bowl then stared straight back at me.
I asked the black cat to stop knocking my precious items to the floor.

I told the dogs to stop their barking & scratching on my door.
I begged the budgies to be friendly & my rabbits to be nice.
All I received for all my troubles were looks as cold as ice.
I threatened the kitten he’d better leave my Christmas tree alone.
I yelled at my youngest daughter to “Get the hell off her mobile phone!”
I suppose I must accept we all have our crosses to bear.

But once this bear’s been crossed, boy, you had all better beware!
Except my husband; I love my hubby puppy!
