NOW WHO TOLD PEOPLE I LIKED SPINACH?

The first time I heard










Her bark








It was a sweet







But loud and annoying sound





Her chocolate and white fur…








Oh so soft







I was scared of her






With her viscous teeth






As a puppy she always






Gave me a smile that could








Stop your heart




And those green eyes



With the way they are shaped




Could tell you how lazy she is




That short, bushy brown tail




As it wags in your face




Oh, how I will miss her

My dog Scrappy inspired my writing and I hope people realize how special animals are.
