THE WHITE FLAG
Wag, wag, wag. I did it.
I must capitulate.
I chewed up my blanket
and it’s now in a state.
Wag, wag, wag. I regret.
I do apologise.
I ripped up your carpet.
It’s now a smaller size.
Wag, wag, wag. I’m contrite.
I am pleading with you.
I wrecked my new basket
I just needed to chew.
Wag, wag, wag. I admit.
I did chase that poor frog.
I’m sorry I killed it.
I’ve been such a bad dog.
Wag, wag, wag. I beg you
please forgive, do not chide.
I’ll surrender your shoe,
the one that I did hide.
I regret I did it.
I’m contrite I admit.
See how with ev’ry wag
I’m waving the white flag.
