My Puppy

 My puppy sure loves to lick me
 He thinks I’m a lollypop.
 Every time I get home he attacks me
 Then kisses me nonstop.

 You’d think I was gone forever
 When I just left the house for the mail,
 He is right at the door when I get back
 With a rapidly wiggling tail.

He wants to eat everything I do,
Mom says, that’s not good for a dog.
We want to keep him fit and healthy
So daily we go for a jog.

My toys are all tattered and ragged
My socks are his ultimate aim,
Doesn’t matter how much it upsets us
He thinks it’s all some kind of game.

I know he’s a bit of a stinker
That always wants to be fed.
But I sure am in love with my puppy,
Every night when we cuddle in bed.
