![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) A poem I partly remember from School is "Tim The Irish Terrier" I remember it started - "'Tis wonderful dogs they're breeding now As small as a flea or as big as a cow - I loved poetry at school our teacher was a lady named Mrs. Rae, she made everything meaningful. Can anyone out there remember the whole of this poem? I would like to see it as a whole once again.

![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) A poem I partly remember from School is "Tim The Irish Terrier" I remember it started - "'Tis wonderful dogs they're breeding now As small as a flea or as big as a cow - I loved poetry at school our teacher was a lady named Mrs. Rae, she made everything meaningful. Can anyone out there remember the whole of this poem? I would like to see it as a whole once again. What THIS one? TIM, AN IRISH TERRIER It's wonderful dogs they're breeding now: Small as a flea or large as a cow; But my old dog Tim he'll never be bet By any dog that ever he met. 'Come on,' says he, 'for I'm not kilt yet.' No matter the size of the dog he'll meet, Tim trails his coat the length o' the street. D'ye mind his scar an' his ragged ear, The like of a Dublin Fusilier? He's a massacree dog that knows no fear. But he'd stick to me till his lastest breath; An' he'd go with me to the gates of death. He'd wait for a thousand years, maybe, Scratching the door 'an whining for me If myself were inside in Purgatory. So I laugh when I hear them make it plain That dogs and men never meet again. For all their talk who'd listen to thim With the soul in the shining eyes of him? Would God be wasting a dog like Tim? -- Winifred Mary Letts

Thanks Mahatmacoat for the poem, I didn't think I would get a reply so soon, if at all.

Never underestimate the interest of a TOG in helping out whenever they can, T'weren't hard, just a quick interwebnet search. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
