Who's That Doggy

If I was a doggy in a rich family ~ most certainly I’d be pedigree   

crowned in robes of exquisite luxury ~ diamond studded collars  

chauffeur driven  Bentley's  

Butlers would serve me on platters of silver and gold~ I’d snub the commoners 

with an airy nose ~surely other tails would want to steal my throne ~ so hold 

ya doggy bones~ I’d rather be alone    


if I was a doggy in a poor family~oh my God ~ that would be catastrophe  

not a single bread crumb wouldever fall for me~ I’d be skeleton and bones  

roaming aimlessly ... 


If I was a doggy in a happy family ~ my joy would be waging quite excitedly  

my tongue would be hanging out  ~as I run and play ~ my bowl of chow would 

include ~ warm smiles each day ~ ya know 


As long as hugs and pats keep coming my way~that’s where this doggy is 

gonna stay~ what ya say

I love dogs and I loved your poem. We are a middle-class family and the dogs we have live their lives happily because, yes, we love dogs.
