My Dog Has Got No Manners

My Dog Has Got No Manners

by Bruce Lansky

My dog has got no manners.

I think he's very rude.

He always whines at dinnertime

while we are eating food.

And when he's feeling thirsty

and wants to take a drink,

he takes it from the toilet

instead of from the sink.

He never wears a pair of pants.

He doesn't wear a shirt.

But worse, he will not shower

to wash away the dirt.

He's not polite to strangers.

He bites them in the rear.

And when I'm on the telephone,

he barks so I can't hear.

When I complained to Mommy,

she said, "I thought you knew:

the reason that his manners stink -

he learns by watching you."

Snowball

Snowball

by Shel Silverstein

I made myself a snowball,

as perfect as can be.

I thought I'd keep it as a pet,

and let it sleep with me.

I made it some pajamas,

and a pillow for its head.

Then last night, it ran away.

But first, it wet the bed!

Solitude

Solitude

by A.A. Milne

I have a house where I go

     When there's too many people,

I have a house where I go

     Where no one can be;

I have a house where I go,

Where nobody ever says "No";

Where no one says anything - so

     There is no one but me.
