If you plan to pootle,
a poodle is a perfect companion for pootling.
And with a gold, long‑tasselled‑haired terrier,
they’d tap along the river’s lull.
And a Great Dane, animated,
rising in a tree‑house elevation.

Swans, what do they wear? Silky dresses, that is what:
hand sewn, feathery, almost invisible,
see through stitches
holding raindrop sequin samples, embroideries,
veil ensembles and antique lace.
Monday means it's time for another #wordoftheweek from @thetoypress.bsky.social This week, the word is "silky." Here's what I came up with.

School Night It’s late And I’m supposed to be sleeping But instead, I’m wide awake and hiding Beneath my blue Spider-Man blanket Holding a plastic flashlight in one hand And a brand-new comic book in the other Eagerly devouring the thrilling adventures Of that wonderful web-slinging wall-crawler While the neighbor’s pint-sized pug Yaps on and on in the apartment next door Just like it does every night © Shaun Jex

Nan's wheels on her red frame rolled along with us, squealing, all a hear‑me whistle,
piercingly high with its talk to the flowers and the earth in a loud yap.
On a play date with my bestie
I love to have a yap
with a large vanilla milkshake
and a soft Nutella bap.
