Lie down and stay she does,
where you want, is where she was,
if it wasn't for her fur you might
              call her a cur.

Say the word bedtime and turn off a light, go to walk away,
she will beat you to your bed, your pillow, for a back-scratch, say,
didn't you just launder those as she make happy noises with her
          mouth open wide, looking up at you from her back.

You know you love her she is your dog at that,
loyal and duty bound to defend you in combat,
so surprise her with a kitten who will become a cat.
