Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen Poet Rhyme

A Dog Named Bear

A Dog Named Bear

There once was a dog named “Bear”
He liked to run here and there.
When he went for a walk,
To his mistress he talked.  And said,
 “Come!  Chase that frog over there."
“Bear! Back to my side,” Mistress cried.
Dogs that eat frogs often die!”
She walloped his hide.
He walked home by her side.
And spent the rest of the day by a chair.
