Xena, the Basset Bruiser<br>I'm Xena, the Warrior Mouser; catching mices is my claim to fame.<br>I would chase and catch those mices, that's how I got my name.<br>But things round here are changing, no little mices do I see;<br>Yikes! Walking in my doorway was a mouse as big as me!<br>I hissed and spit and bared my teeth, all to no avail;<br>For this big mouse was not a mouse, but a houndie; I went pale.<br>A sniffing DOG, with great big feet and a tail that wags and wags,<br>She sniffs and slobbers and drinks my water and even my toys she snags.<br>She sniffs my ma, and licks my pa, and nuzzles on their faces.<br>Oh
dear, oh dear, there's a challenge here, we not be trading places!<br>All social like she came at me and tried to share her drool;<br>A friendly face? Not in this place, does she think I'm a fool?<br>Those big, sad eyes and long, long ears, and slobbery, licking tongue;<br>I'm not a sucker like my sis, I won't cut and run.<br>I just fluffed my tail, and popped my nails, and touched her on the nose<br>And off she ran with nose in hand and so the story goes.<br>That swipe I took, not big in my book, was just enough to scare her;<br>No sniffing dog will come at me, just try, I'll glare and dare her!<br>I remain: THE QUEEN. I'm Xena, the Basset Bruiser, new name, same game!<br><br>Have to tell you they new puppy and the old cat were both asleep on the bed this morning, my husband was the fence...we are having a cease fire.<br>Maggie Honnold and the Honnold kidz<br></div></div><br>
