New Toy

He does not wait for me to unpack the bags his nose pilfers as his stubby tail wags Home from shopping and Kubla hunts for joy he is expecting his brand new toy Genghis confused barks and howls for he plays with any old toy anyhow But Kubla must taste his heart's wish a new clean toy is his favorite dish It has to be furry and squeak with each bite to bring Kubla to his happy delight He grabs with his mouth and bites to squeak it is the sound sought and seeks New and fresh he chews and chews first a tiny hole then he bites it into Out the air bladder that squeaked divine he chews it dead as a treat he dine Genghis shakes his head fast and furious with an old toy in mouth wants Kubla curious But Kubla is content a new toy destroyed it took only a few moments for the little fat boy The remains of white stuffing all over the floor with little-spoiled doggies who could want more
