I learned how to bark, I learned how to with females spark, I learned how to fetch the ball, But damned if I learned how to roll over when called… I know how to give my paw, First one then the other without flaw, I cannot catch a frizbee in my jaw, But what I have learned would put you in awe… Rufuz has taught me quite a great deal, I even use a napkin when eating a meal, He taught me how to burp out gas, I learn well and never give back any sass… © ed J 4/19/07
