My Best Friend
My Best Friend
Whenever I run errands for my mom
And have to walk through places big and wide,
I never worry and I’m always calm,
Because I have my best friend by my side.
He runs ahead to see the path is clear,
Then rushes back and circles once around.
He gives a little bark as he draws near;
It’s such a welcome, happy little sound.
One day I took a short-cut through the trees
And lost my way within the shaded wood.
But then my best friend found the way with ease,
And led me home as quickly as he could.
I never want to lose my way again,
And so I’ll always stay by my best friend.
A Soupy Story
A Soupy Story
I made a great big bowl of soup to eat,
Because I was as hungry as a bear.
I found a little spot to make my seat,
And settled down to eat it then and there.
Along came Jonesy, such a silly cat,
And started begging for a little taste.
I always fed him well and he was fat;
He never let his cat food go to waste.
Then next came Funny, looking for a bite;
He sat beside me in my little place.
I knew that he would sit and beg all night,
And try to lick the soup right from my face!
And so I shared my soup with my two friends,
And that is where this soupy story ends.
