A Retriever Pup's Lament
They say that I'm too little.
They say I'll have to wait.
And off they go with guns and dogs
And leave me at the gate.
But I can run and jump and swim
And fetch and sit and stay.
I am a little slow to drop
But I let them take it away.
It's lonely here.
They'll be gone all day.

So the couch is mine.
ALL MINE! ALL DAY!
