Growing Up

I have a pup called Sheeba
And Muttley is her mate,
And when it comes to dinner time
My pups are never late.

They ate my Gargoyle Monster Set,
They ate my teddy-bear,
They ate my pet goanna,
They just didn't seem to care.

They ate my budgie Hercules,
They ate my mother's mat,
Now they waddle everywhere,
My pups are very fat.

Too Cute. So typical of puppies to chew everything in sight. This poetry form is a Quatrain, John. Well done!
