Super Bowl Sunday

The big day for American football is here,

Fans have been waiting for this all year.

Teams have been picked and are ready to go,

So much anticipation for the halftime show.

People will gather together and cheer,

Wearing team colors and all of the gear.

The commercials are also exciting to see,

An action packed day of watching TV.

One team will score more touchdowns and win,

Accepting the Super Bowl trophy with a grin.

Who do you want to win?

You: A poem featuring Tucker the Shorthaired Collie

You should always be your number one fan,

Take the time to reflect and make a plan.

You should always treat yourself with respect,

And not get down when things aren’t perfect.

You should always look ahead and persevere,

So many great things have happened this year.

You should always be aware of what you have,

Not to be confused with the conceited brag.

You should always be able to say no thank you,

If not you’ll bite off more than you can chew.

How have you loved yourself today?

Healing: A poem featuring Koda the Goldendoodle

Healing is getting healthy again,

Only the body knows exactly when.

Healing occurs after a broken bone,

Recovery time is often unknown.

Healing is taking a much needed rest,

Time to relax and not be stressed.

Healing is letting others help you,

You will see the friends who are true.

Healing is a process in can be slow,

Use the time to reflect and grow.

What have you healed from?

Comfort: A poem featuring LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs Elijah, Joy, Abner, Miriam, Cubby, Devorah, Gabriel, and Triton.

Comfort is offering a healing touch,

When life is feeling like too much.

Comfort is listening to someone in need,

Free from judgment and criticism indeed.

Comfort is giving a shoulder to lean on,

Be supportive and create some calm.

Comfort is using encouraging words,

A time for us to calm the nerves.

Comfort is going that extra mile,

To give us all a chance to smile.

Relax

Relaxing is taking an afternoon nap,

A time to take off your thinking cap.

Relaxing is watching your favorite movie,

Grab some popcorn and make a smoothie.

Relaxing is getting outside for a walk,

Connect with nature and look for a hawk.

Relaxing is nurturing your body and mind,

Take deep breaths and always be kind.

Relaxing is finding your creative side,

Find a hobby and do it with pride.

How do you relax?

Spring

The earth wakes up from a cold winter nap,

Longer days make us dance and clap.

Birds happily sing and fly with ease,

The bright sun shines as if to please.

Flowers bloom with vibrant colors,

Trees grow their leaves like all the others.

The school year has only a few months to go,

Kids count down the days with a glow.

The rejuvenating season is one of four,

The lovely three months make us want more.

What does spring mean to you?

Obedience

Obedience is the act of following the rules,

It is never polite to ignore and refuse.

Obedience is listening to your mom or dad,

Making good choices will make you glad.

Obedience is learning to respect your elders,

Make it special by becoming their helper.

Obedience is following your teacher’s request,

Learning is fun so always try your best.

Obedience includes structure and self-respect,

Ask yourself about the meaning and then reflect.

Am I supposed to be on the couch?

Christmas: A poem featuring Rocco the Bull Mastiff

The day has come we’ve waited for all year,

A time to celebrate the reason for the cheer.

Our Savior was born for all of us to see,

The beautiful people we are allowed to be.

Stockings are hung by the fire with care,

Twinkling lights make the tree not bare.

Lists are made an the elves go to work,

Stay on the nice list for a holiday perk.

This time of year is merry and bright,

Merry Christmas to all and stay warm tonight.

What is your favorite Christmas tradition?

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is being with family and friends,

Hoping the wonderful day never ends.

Giving thanks to all the people you love,

The reason for gathering will rise above.

Thanksgiving is a time to relax and catch up,

Take time to slow down and fill up your cup.

An abundance of laughter takes over the room,

Traditions and memories may start to bloom.

Thanksgiving is filled with love and gratitude,

A day to reflect on your positive attitude.

Coffee: A poem featuring Kali the Corgi

The taste of coffee is like no other,

The variety of bown is a beautiful color.

The feeling of happiness after the first sip,

Adding a flavorful creamer is a delicious tip.

Coffee is popular in the morning and afternoon.

Drink it at night if you don’t want to snooze.

Coffee can be served hot or over ice,

The year-round treat is so very nice.

Enjoy your cup and don’t rush to be done,

Meeting a friend for coffee is always fun.

How do you drink your coffee?
