Jan Allison Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Dippy Doberman

My Doberman puppy's in trouble
He cocked his leg against our kitchen table
And I’d only just taken him for walkies
where he just sniffed at that manky mutt Mable

I’d let my Chester off his leash
so he could answer natures call
but not a piddle was to be seen
he preferred to be chasing a ball

So now he’s whining like a naughty child
In fact, he’s retreated onto my bed
I think he’s ashamed of his behaviour
as the sheet’s been pulled over his head!

Inspired by clip 2 using a lot of poetic licence!
