New Dog Named Ucap
We have a new dog and we call her UCAP
Interesting, I say, does she chase tail and nap?
She doesn’t do anything other dogs do.
Actually, and her bark sounds more like a moo.
I did not meet UCAP that night, it was late
but opened my eye the next day to a crazy fate.
The dog looked more like a cow, had an udder too
Now I knew why this dog did not bark, yet said moo
Pardon me, I said, but this dog is a cow.
Couldn’t be said the city slicker, not knowing how…
They could have paid the pet shop for a dog but instead
Brought home an enormous beast who liked being grain-fed.
What does UCAP Stand for? I asked them, interested now.
Up close and personal, and you are right, she might be a cow.
Up close and personal loved living in the house with these two.
When I left I heard another loud bellowing moo.
