For Victor and His Mom

If any of you kitties have not read Shel Silverstein you should. Yesterday Victor and his mom made a reference to him in their post and it struck a chord with Mommy. My Mommy loves his books and has many of them. When Victor's Mom mentioned "Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout" Mommy just had to post this poem.
Please biggify for maximum enjoyment!
Just remember kitties, always make certain your beans take the garbage out!

Hehe, that's a funny poem :-)

I have never heard about Shel Silverstein but it really seems to be worth a read! Thanks, Parker!

Thanx for sharing this really funnily quirky poem, Parker. :)
There's mention of spice HAM, so would it mean that it's your fav poem from the book too? hee hee

This is a funny poem. We have never heard of Shel Silverstein either, but we just followed your link. We liked Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too as well.

Mr Karate had that book, and loved it when Mom would read to him. Mom remembers Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout very well!

Poor Sarah met an awful fate? What fate? What happened?

We luffs Shel Silverstein in this house, his books as well--The Giving Tree and The Missing Piece just to name two.

Got your email about trouble with my site and I'm so sorry about the inconvenience. Is it a recent thing or has it been happening all along? I'm trying to figure out if I added something that's causing it.

Pixie wants to know why the brown bananers had to go in the trash.

LZ said...

The Woman is good at remembering to take the garbage out. The Awesome Man apparently can not remember that Tuesday and Friday are trash days.

That's one of Mommy's favorite books!

we love him and have many of his books too. mommt won't get the Giving Tree cause it makes her want to smack that little boy upside the head.

PS I have humans to scoop up and take out my, uh, "garbage" Perhaps Sarah could borrow mine.

I'm lucky if I can get my Daddy to kleen my bocks, let alone take out the garbij.
