Curmudgeon's Corner: A Good Ol' Dog

The First Reader might never admit it, but he has a turn for poetry. Or, as he said about this one 'doggerel. I write doggerel.' Be as that may, I like it, and I think you'll want to sing it in your head, the way I did. 

Just a good ol' dog never meaning no harm, beats all you ever saw, getting' in trouble on her paws since the day she was born

Chasing the cats chewing the rugs Some day the warden might get her but the neighbor never will

Makin' her way The only way she knows how Thats just a little bit more than her owner allows

Just a good ol' dog Wouldn't change if she could

Biting the mailman like a modern day Robin Hood
