“Hm. Hm. Just listen!
I’m in charge, not you!
I say what you do.
Now come! You come!”
But, Mum, no, no.
I don’t want to go.
That way’s no fun
I’m staying here,
sat on my bum.
“You will do as I say.
We are going this way!
Now come! You come!”
No! I’m refusing to shift.
I’m not going to lift
my butt
from this spot.
I want to go back
down that track.
“You can’t!
I don’t care what you want,
Now come! You come!”
I don’t like it there,
the traffic scares
me. I want to stay here
in the park where
I feel safe. That way!
“Stop trying to break free!
You’re safe with me.
Now come! You come!”
No, no! You can’t make me!
Free is how I want to be.
Oh, why didn’t you say
you’ve got a treat? Okay,
as you’ve put it that way,
I’ll come. I’ll come.
Another Doggy Ditty using my theme “Almost Human” which I hope to be able to use throughout this April PAD.
