Pedigree

What one thinks

Of dogs at large

Looks or size or

Tricks performed

Do they guard

Sniff out drugs

Or buddies great

For lonely ones

As one searches

More and more

Finds dogs are

More like us

Like us they do

Bark or bite

Smile and dance

Speak with eyes

Laze in the sun

Chase butterflies

Run after cars

They won’t drive

But we do what

Dogs never do

Pride ourselves

On tricks we do

And our fancied

Pedigree
