Our Pet Dog
Our pet dog Bree
basks midst joy's spree
as truly free…
She plays with zest
showing tricks' best
smiting mouse-test...
Guarding us well
from awful smell
are her barks' yell...
She keeps us glad
with doggie fad
so cool, not bad...
Befriending cats
she shares her mats
along food fats...
Thus, everyday
to God, we pray*
"bless Bree alway."
*Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
