Answer 2

DEFINITION-

What is my dog?

A furry four-legged companion

A winsome fierce dog

Happiness all around

The gentle kind dog

Too small and mighty

White and tan hair all around

A warm soft song

So small he could fit in a teacup

Powerful, But strong

Toys and tails thrown

This is my dog!

Answer 3

Can it be (this is my poem don't take) by: me

Can a river be a river if you stop it's flow?

Can a turtle be a turtle if it doesn't move slow?

Can a person be a person without a personality?

All this I cannot see.

An Autumn

In autumn breeze,

There are perfect memories-

Hidden and silent.

by Dominic Cogan

Roses are red

violets are blue

this poem is beautiful and so are you

This door you might not open, and you did;

So enter now, and see for what slight thing

You are betrayed. . . . Here is no treasure hid,

No cauldron, no clear crystal mirroring

The sought-for truth, no heads of women slain 5

For greed like yours, no writhings of distress,

But only what you see. . . . Look yet again

An empty room, cobwebbed and comfortless.

Yet this alone out of my life I kept

Unto myself, lest any know me quite; 10

And you did so profane me when you crept

Unto the threshold of this room to-night

That I must never more behold your face.

This now is yours. I seek another place.

"Bluebeard," by Edna St. Vincent Millay
