Puppy Paddle
The pitter-patter of
puppy paws
and wagging tails
by the poolside floor,
the bravest boy
begins his dash
leaps…
splish, splash splash
The next to go took
quite a trip
went for a look
but his puppy paw slipped,
whoopsie-dasie!
now he’s a dogfish
woof!
splash, splish splish
what follows thereafter is
quite the scene
now all he puppies join
the swimming team,
except for one
the smallest in class
a little too nervous
watches
splish, splash splash
The pitter-patter of
doggie steps
as mummy comes along
to give her some pep,
it takes some convincing
the run-up isn’t fast
but with all her strength
jumps…
….
splish, splash splash
