MY NEW PUPPY
My New Puppy
Grandpa Mick came by today
And handed me a puppy
He’s black and white with a cold nose
I think I’ll name him Lucky
Dad shook his head and Mom said “No!”
Then Gramps said, with a grin
“Look how cute this puppy is
The boy’ll take care of him.”
So I got to keep the puppy
And we had so much fun
The first thing that the puppy did
Was take off at a run!
It wasn’t hard to catch him
But you should have heard him holler
When Gramps helped me put on him
A brand new leash and collar
My Grandpa Mick, he told me
To take the puppy for a walk
I think I’ll need more practice
Cause he dragged me half a block!
I love my little puppy
But he takes lots of care
Mom and Dad keep getting mad
Cause he makes messes everywhere
Like when it started raining
And Mom let out a roam
“Look at what that pup has done!”
“There’s MUD on my clean floor!”
And Daddy didn’t laugh at all
Today when he came home
I thought it was so funny
Lucky thought his slipper was a bone
He’s just a little puppy
But keeping up with him is hard
Mommy said “Outside with him!”
“Go play out in the yard.”
Mom sent us outside again
Cause he chewed up her new shoe
So here we sit and think real hard
“Now what can we do?”
