I really need a very nice picture of a basset, sound asleep, for this poem-somehow I don't think that will be a problem. Sandy

Basset Dreams (loosely based on a true story )

Today I felt like I had died
I was feeling just that lousy
So I laid down, Duke at my side
He too, was feeling drowsy

It didn't take long, we nodded off
adrift, each one, in our dreams
cosy and warm... the bed was soft,
the duvet was in blues and greens

Duke soon interrupted my bliss
I heard him moan so low...
I quickly new something was amiss
as his moans began to grow

He began to violently twitch
there was a jerking of his feet
I thought perhaps he just had an itch
after all he was fast asleep!

Then up he jumped, fast as can be
unlike his usual habit
only to find the pillow in his teeth
was not a big old rabbit!

I think you are right. Sleeping Bassets should not be too hard to find!

 

[Starr~n~Tootie]

I would be surprised if anyone on here DIDN'T have pics of their sleepy basset!

PS...How many poems do you have so far, Sandy? :?:

cosy and warm... the bed was soft

When I read that line, I thought of this picture.

I'm having a hard day today. LOL. One was a repeat. How do you put the photos into the post? I would appreciate any info. All of the Bassets are so beautiful. I love looking at their pictures.

I've been out of town, so this may be to late. But, I thought this was a cute one of Bogie snoozing on the pillow. Photobucket really cut down the size but I could e-mail you full size.

Nothing like puppy sleep:

Comfy?

One of favorite pictures of Bubba sleeping.

Here is another of our favorites of Bubba napping. Boy, do we miss him.
