Once
upon a time there was a girl named Samantha.
She had blond hair and brown eyes.
Samantha's favorite animal was a small puppy named Starr.
Starr had brown fur and big brown puppy dog fur.
Everywhere that Samantha went Starr would follow her snapping
at her heels.
When Samantha would go to sleep, Starr would put her cold nose
on Samantha's feet and Samantha would wake up with the giggles.
Sometimes when Samantha would scratch Starr's head, Starr would
go to sleep on her lap.
When Samantha started school, Starr would listen for the little
school bus to stop in front of her house.
Starr would run around and around in circles barking for joy.
Everyday when she got home from school Samantha would give Starr
a special kiss.
Starr's favorite foods would be half of whatever Samantha was
having. Starr especially liked it when Samantha mixed left over
gravy with her dogfood.
After supper Samantha and Starr would run outside to play.
Samantha would throw a ball and Starr would run after the ball.
Be careful of the road Starr, Samantha would say because cars
and trucks might not be able to stop and run over you.
Everynight when Samantha brushed her teeth, Starr would chew
on a doggie treat to clean her teeth. And when Samantha said
her goodnight prayers, Starr would kneel down beside of her
and said his doggie prayers.
Goodnight Starr you are the very best puppy a girl ever had.
Starr licked Samantha's hands and went to sleep smiling.

A
Cat's Life
There
was once a fat cat.
That sat on a fat man's hat.
One day the fat man hit the cat
with a hat.
And the poor cat fell flat.

My
Goat
On
a sunny day
I lost my way
Down by the bay
I took a nap.
I saw Myrtle my goat
Riding a small boat
Wearing a float
Over her wool coat.
Sipping her tea
Without me or Bea
Floating out to sea
No more to be.
