Lucky Kid's Dogs
LUCKY KID'S DOGS
I have two dogs
And they have me
We like to run around the trees.
One dog’s tiny --one is big--
The little one
can dance a jig.
Penny is the little one,
She squints her eyes--hates morning sun.
Boston terrier, black and white--
When she is sad I hug her tight.
Zipper is the big gold dog
His winter bark is collie fog.
My dogs and I can hide all day
sometimes we spy--
sometimes we play--
When I swing and drag my feet,
They lick my face--to them it's sweet.
We like to roll in blue hay blooms--
Our recipe---- kid-dog perfume.
Mondays visit neighbor Alice
Her house is one geranium palace.
The dogs wake up before I do
If I'm too slow, they hide my shoe.
orange bus honks
then off we run
down the drive--
we howl with fun!
All the kids wish they could be
the girl with dogs--
and that kid’s me!
