But What About the Dog? Bedtime is a poem written with love: You change into your jammies at 8 o’clock You wash your hands and face, you brush your teeth You kneel beside your bed and say your prayers And then the dog leaps up onto your pillow And then your mother says the dog can’t stay And then you plead, and doggie looks so sad And then your mother sighs and says, “All right, “But only for tonight,” then kisses you (but not the dog) Childhood is a poem written with love
