I’m a morning dog
and I get up at six.
My humans do grumble
but I have my tricks.
A pat on the ear
and a lick on the feet
when they try to pretend
that they still are asleep.
But it’s time to get up!
Take me out; that’s my goal.
And while I’m outside,
Breakfast please! In my bowl!
When I’ve run and I’ve stretched
and come in and been fed,
The next thing I want
Is to go back to bed.
