photo of Joe, a.k.a. Sophie by Susan Pittman |
My homework was bad.
It was long and hard too,
but I’d heard people talk.
I knew what to do.
I found my dog Joe.
I showed him the stuff.
“Here, Joe!” I said.
All Joe said was “Ruff?”
I crumpled the pages.
“Fetch!” I told Joe,
but he sat by my feet
drooling, “Where did it go?”
I tore it to shreds.
I mixed it with stew.
I filled up his bowl.
I said, “Here, boy! For you!”
Joe took a good sniff.
He whined, then he beat it.
I had homework so bad,
my dog wouldn’t eat it.
