If My Doggy Could

What if my doggy could learn how to read? Would the library have all the books he might need? Would he stay up all night reading, "How to Succeed"? What if my doggy could learn how to read? What if my doggy could write me a note? Would he fold up the paper and send it by boat? Could I make any sense of the things that he wrote? What if my doggy could write me a note? What if my doggy knew how to do math? Would he add up the hours that passed 'till his bath? Or subtract yellow flowers from grass on the path? What if my doggy knew how to do math? What if it turned out my doggy could talk? Would he stop every stranger he met on his walk? Would he babble and fret while they stood there in shock? What if it turned out my doggy could talk? My doggy can't write, or subtract, or chit chat, but he IS good at catch and at chasing the cat and at racing to me from the place he was sat, just to lick my whole face...! And I'm happy with that. __________________________ 06/27/22 Pets Talking Poetry Contest Constance La France
