Toss Me Out the Window

Toss me out of the window,
You’ll find a grieving wife,
Pull me back but through the door, and
Watch someone give life!

What am I?

The letter “n”. (widow, donor).

Days of Summer

My days are in the summer
When you’ll eat me when I’m hot
In fact I’ll even eat myself
Where battles tough are fought
But when you find me in a fight
‘Twill be high in the sky
And if you catch me napping
I suggest you let me lie
When you’re bad come to my house
From Ma get thoughts profound
Am I big or am I small?
Some say I’m just a pound.

Dog. Dog days, hot dog, dog pound, dog fight.
