Poem
This story is about a little dog called Tag Along. He loved and followed a little fat boy name of Edwin Armstrong. The pair were always seen together where ever they went, He was the friend little Edwin needed, it was like he was heaven sent. The kids at school always laughed at Edwin for being fat. But not little Tag Along for he’d have none of that. When Edwin was in class he would patiently wait outside, Till Edwin came out then they played run and hide. Little Tag Along would run ahead of Edwin in a game of tag. Then Edwin started noticing his pants would sag. As months grew into years Edwin grew into a young man who was not fat. Because little Tag Along helped to rid little Edwin of that. It was like little Tag Along knew , What Edwin needed as he grew and grew. When Edwin graduated the head of his class that once taunted and made fun of him. He stood there to give his speech so tall and thin, while old Tag Along sat at his feet so proper and prim. He said once upon a time there lived a boy, Who had no friends till Tag Along came and brought such joy. The friend one needs to show him what he needs to do, To teach that life is not just something you hurry through. He said we need to look past our noses and into their hearts, For he said that is where to me life gets its start. Old Tag along knew what I needed more than any of you. And he showed me the way to overcome, what I needed to do. He said I truly would like to honor my friend Tag Along first, Why old Tag Along sat up and his little chest started swelling you’d think it might burst. Well old Tag Along barked to the crowd , He just barked and barked real loud, you could tell he was proud. Well Edwin and Tag Along left that day, He and little Tag Along just packed up and went away. I’ve heard reports that Edwin has made it real big, And that old Tag Along goes along as he checks on his fleet of rigs.
