Lucky Kid's Dogs
LUCKY KID'S DOGS
I have two dogs
And they have me
We meet beside the olive tree.
One dog’s tiny --one is big--
The little one
lid the quen of jig
Penny is the little one.
She squints her eyes--hates morning sun
Boston terrier, black and white
When I’m sad I hug her tight.
Zipper is the bigger dog
He makes collie circle fog.
My dogs and I can hide all day
sometimes we spy--
sometimes we play!
When I swing and drag my feet
They lick my face--to them its sweet
We like to roll in blue hay blooms
Make our own dog & kid perfumes.
Mondays visit neighbor Alice
Her house is one geranium palace
The dogs wake up before I do
If I'm too slow, they hide my shoe
When the school bus honks
off we run
down the drive--
we howl with fun!
All the kids wish they could be
the girl with dogs--
and that kid’s me!
