Notes About The Poem

For Pets Poetry Contest sponsored by Rob Carmack

Frisky

Welcome Frisky to your new home
Where happiness you’ll bring.
You’ll tug and catch and jump and roam,
And children’s hearts will sing.

Where happiness you’ll bring,
You’ll tug a rope and catch some bees,
And children’s hearts will sing.
You’ll catch the cat who likes to tease.

You’ll tug a rope and catch some bees,
And maybe when you’re still a pup,
You’ll catch the cat who likes to tease,
But then we’ll all grow up.

And maybe when you’re still a pup,
Laughing kids will chase you down the street,
But then we will all grow up
And forget to let you eat.

Laughing kids will chase you down the street.
Then they’ll desert you in your yard
And forget to let you eat.
Howling alone at night in pain is hard.

Then they’ll desert you in your yard.
To the great beyond you’ll now ascend.
Howling alone at night in pain is hard.
You were our best friend to the end.

To the great beyond you’ll now ascend.
You’ll tug and catch and jump and roam.
You were our best friend to the end.
Welcome Frisky to your new home.
