Country Dog

If a country dog could talk What would he say? His nose has explored the great outdoors, Always smelling unashamedly. A country dog knows everything, So many things he wants to tell you. There’s a brand new colt in the neighbor’s barn, And baby bunnies in the thicket. If a country dog could talk He would tell you all the things he knows. There’s a row of beans sprouted in the plot. Catfish are jumping in the pond, Where the hedgehog lives down in the bog And broken bottles at the old dump site. A country dog’s knowledge is beautiful.
