Beware of the Dog

Beware of the Dog By Elton Camp The door-to-door salesman was working a street Hoping that some interested party he would meet He saw a sign way up at the end of the driveway Until he got close he couldn’t see what it did say “Beware of vicious dog” the sign did sternly warn Added, “Several trespassers, to tiny bits he has torn.” Just then the salesman heard a deep, angry growl The sign he had seen too late so he began to howl Although the salesman ran just as fast as he could, It was too late and didn’t do him even a bit of good The German Shepard over the fence on him too fast So it turned out that that sales call came to be his last
