The Pet Store

Did you see that sweet little puppy, So cute with curly hair? Or how about that big Shepherd? I can't pick one, it's not fair! That's a darling little kitten, I could dress it, that would be fun. Aahh look at that ol' boy, He looks lonely, is he the one? There are budgies and colorful parrots, Mice, gerbals and a fluffy brown bunny rabbit. There are canaries that don't stop singing, Even a cockatiel who has a bad habbit. Over in a dark spot, coilled up, is a snake, It's not as big as the lizard there, And a salamander posed very still, And the chamelian does'nt move a hair. I go in every chance I get Because I want a pet of my own. But I can't decide which is the one I want everyone that I'm shown!

I really don't want more pets but just can't help "thinking about it" when I go to a pet store. Thanks, glad you got a chuckle!

Ah, Virginia, you can't take them all in. In that case, you'd have to open a pet shop! Fun write and fun read. I enjoyed it.

I have two cats too many, (but love them anyway) but as much as I don't want another pet the pet store is so inviting!
