Dog Days

   These are days when my dog and
     I are so cool, every day of the
     week right after school.

   On Monday we went to the park,
     and all he did was run and bark.

   On Tuesday it rained, but we still
     went outside, and my dog pushed
     me into the mud, and I cried.

   On Wednesday the weather was
     so hot, we mainly sat in the
     shade in one spot.

   On Thursday I felt a little sore,
     so my dog sat with me for a
     while, oh, what a bore!

   On Friday I felt so much better;
     we jumped into the pool and felt
     so much wetter!

   My dog and I have so much fun
     together.

   We do all the time, no matter the
     weather.
