Notes About The Poem

Oscar - Nursery Rhyme

Oscar was a little white canine Cocker spaniel was in his bloodline He was such a good dog Even played with a frog He was like a heartfelt valentine Oscar wasn’t like his little brother Who yapped constantly to their mother He wasn’t such a good boy He stole sweet Oscar’s toy Eager to be one all would smother Oscar was amusing, such a hoot Bacon or burger he wouldn’t dispute He became so chunky Just like a food junkie Tried to put him on a fare of fruit Oscar wasn’t always the silent sort In large crowds, he became my escort It’s old news – his bark Was the life of the park Where he’d always find time to consort Oscar was more than just a cute dog He stuck with me through snow, rain and smog More loved than I can say Twas’ with me all the way He was smarter than the best sheepdog Children's Limericks Poetry Contest Sponsor: Eve Roper November 23, 2022
