I Am a Dog

I am a dog.

I wonder why I can’t talk.

I hear mama say, ’Bark’’.

I  see the world all around me.

I want to speak to people.

I am going to bark at something.

I pretend I am a  fully grown dog.

I      feel       so   small.

I touch and lick hands.

I understand what mama and papa say.

I say, ‘’ I am just a little pup.”

I dream that  Someday there will be more pups like Me 

and my  family.
