All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken.
A light from the shadow shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.

~J.R.R. Tolkien

Woof woof! Roof roof!

Wanna be at home where everything is within reach.
Want to play the piano when listening to music.
Thinking of Poppy, did he realise I am gone? 9_9.
I always think though he is a dog, he has the attitude of a cat.
He always pretend to not hear you when you call him. In fact, he never responded when my dad or I called him, except when it was time to eat. In fact, even cats would respond. If he is at the backyard and you call him, he will not turn up with wiggling tail. He is probably lying on the stone table and attentively looking out the backgate. Your call is secondary to his business.

I stood on the balcony one night and called his name like a ghost to see whether he can actually hear. Nah we all know he can, since he likes to bark whenever he hears strangers' vehicles (damn scary when he barks seriously). He has the ability to differentiate the noise of family's vehicles from strangers'. Mr. Postman is terrified to pass by our house if our gate is not shut.

Maybe he knows that Poppy is such a "marketplace" name he chooses to ignore. Actually we rarely give special names to our dogs. He might already be Poppy Junior the Third. Oppps. We had Blacky, Jacky, Bobby, Pop, Poppy, Bob before (maybe 'Puppy' too?). Dido and Nini were the two with more special names. Eheh. There was one whose name was Andy Lala (lolol), but I am not sure whether it was our dog or our relatives'. This really is childhood memory.
