Talking Dog
My dog is so unique.
He taught himself to speak,
but all he seems to say
is, “HEY! COME ON, LET’S PLAY!”When he begins to talk,
it’s never, “Wanna walk?”
or, “How are you today?”
but, “HEY! COME ON, LET’S PLAY!”Sometimes I think he’s hushed,
but soon my hopes are crushed:
he shouts to my dismay
his “HEY! COME ON, LET’S PLAY!”What makes me want to weep:
he’s talking in his sleep.
So now, all night… all day,
it’s “HEY! COME ON, LET’S PLAY!”
