Poetry: Puddles

by Barry Williams

Created on: September 14, 2010


How delightful, a birthday present for me

What a surprise, I wonder just what it could be

Oh darling thank you what a lovely pet

A little puppy. It's your best present  yet


What shall we call him? He must have a name

Johnny, Ronnie, Donny all sound the same

I want some name special, something that's cute

It's so hard to find a name that will actually suit


Goodness me puppy what have you done on the floor?

I hope you're finished and there's going to be nothing more

Puppy you've piddled  in at least three places

It looks like you need to be trained to do it in outdoor places


Well thank you darling now go get the mop

And take puppy outside before he finds something solid to drop

I've come up with a name with these puddles in view

We'll call him Puddles for now,  it will have to do
