[Sharon Mack]

HOBBIES

I decided
While still quite young
That the cat-eye marble
Was quite a marvel
And so a collection
Was begun.

Getting bored
I changed my mind
Collecting rocks
While out on walks
Along the paths
Was fun.

Seashells next
My passion was
I walked along the shore
Picking up more and more
My pockets filled
With shells.

Time went by
I changed my mind
I tried to find
Something different; something new
That I could do
With my time.

I came across
A friendly ad
Out of business, need to sell
I thought the pups were really swell
I raise them now
They're so divine!

So if you'd like
I'll sell you one
A sweet Pug pup is just the thing
Companionship and love he'll bring
And you can start
YOUR hobby now.
