This is Doug Caffey just having fun writing poetry!
Here is a little poem Doug Caffey wrote after coming home from the hospital recovering from his
3rd heart attack.
There was a man from
Albuquerque
who liked chicken better than
turkey
but his Boston Terrier, Muggsy
preferred chicken
jerky!
Still having his sense of humor, Doug Caffey says himself he must be feeling better! 
The Brain of an Ant
I've never seen the
brain of an
ant.
The fact is, it's so
small that I
can't.
Yet the ant is as busy
as can
be
and I still wish his brain
I could
see!
Ants are so very
fascinating

IF YOU WALK IN MY SHOES
If you walk in my shoes,
They will pinch your feet
As they do mine today;
And with my shoes on
You can walk away!
Then, I'll buy a brand new pair,
Which I'll treat with care.
And I'll thank you if you choose
To walk away in my old shoes!
If you choose to use my shoes,
I will win and you will lose;
I'll sing in the major key,
While you sing the blues!
So, walk in my old shoes,
While I walk in another pair;
Your feet will hurt
While I walk on air!

A BALD-HEADED ROOSTER & A ONE-EYED HEN
A bald-headed rooster
And a one-eyed hen
Grew up together
In a barn-yard pen.
Never having seen
Another rooster or hen,
They thought they were
What they'd always been.
Now the rooster couldn't crow
And the hen was fat;
He had no need for his comb,
For his head was flat.
The rooster stayed on the blind side
Of the one-eyed hen,
So that, to her, he was a prince
So long as he stayed on her side
Of the barn-yard fence.
Sometimes we're like that pair
Being blind-sided,
She thinks I have hair,
And having only one eye
I look twice as good to her there!
