Little Dog Blue

Dog felt down, he never smiled anymore. “I bet its because you're a bore!” said Freda the Frog. “Maybe,” said Dog. So Frog did a trick, to make Dog smile. And it helped him, just for a while. “Oh, Dog, why are you blue?” “I don't know Frog, I wish I knew.” The next day, Dog could not grin. Without a bark, he let the Cat in. “What's this ol boy, you won't say hello? What's gotten into you, my dear fellow?” So Cat led dog on a merry chase But he soon saw his efforts were a waste “Oh, Dog, why are you blue?” Dog sighed, “I don't know Cat, I wish I knew.” All of the night, Dog laid there without scratching a louse. He was beginning to worry, Mr. Whiskers, the house mouse. “Good heavens,” said he to Kitty Cat, “He doesn't even groan.” “But what's the use, without a good bone?” So he found a turkey leg in the ice box. And dangled it in front of Dog. “Have I the pox?” “Oh, Dog, why are you blue?” Dog shook his head, “I don't know Mouse, I wish I knew.” “Listen,” said Polly the Parrot. “I know what's the matter.” “He misses his master, Miss Hatter.” The animals then grinned, not all was lost then, For perhaps with this information, he would smile again. So together they conspired, to find the missing mistress. They searched the house, from floor to tress. But all they found was Mr Hatter, but he missed her too, “Where are you, where are you, Miss Betty Boo?” Polly said to they, “Now you know it's true, She's gone away, our master is blue. When is she coming back?” Dog said, “I wish I knew.”
