Re: Tools of the trade: The Rhyming Thread

Lilly Belle


I like to hang out with my dog, Lilly.
She has a calm side
but can run like a filly.

My dog is tall, and her color pied.
She’s keen and lean
and loves the outside.

Lilly is humble, not like a queen.
This girl plays along;
not one bone is mean.

Lilly has trouble with joints that aren’t strong.
It causes her pain,
and that seems so wrong.

This love for my dog isn't hard to explain.
All dogs are dilly,
but she’s right as rain!
