What Not to Name Your Dog

WHAT NOT TO NAME YOUR DOG ~ rough draft
by April Halprin Wayland

Hy.
Hello.
Hey.

Trust me. You don’t want your dog
spinning in circles
wondering who is calling his name.

And mothers, don’t name your children after a month.
I know from personal experience.
I have whiplash for thirty days every spring.
======================================

I wrote Bruce: “A PHP (place holder poem) that is so true!”

Bruce replied: “Not bad for a PHP.”

No reason for posting this photo.  It just cracks me up.
