(by Samantha the Cat)
Oh, how I wish I were a dog!
A wonderfully peppy puppy dog.
Full of wisdom, stature, energy, true-
Full of wonder and curiosity, why, just like you!
Oh, how I wish I were a dog!
Carefree, whimsical, and happy with all.
I would run around, roll, and jump up high,
Fly in the air, fetch, oh gravity, I defy!
Oh, how I wish I were a dog!
Never without grace, my tongue hanging down.
I would grin all day, play, pant, and slobber,
Lick my humanβs face? Of course, itβs no bother!
But alas, I was born to be merely a catβ¦
A simple, ordinary kitty cat.
But I adore my human, and she loves me,
So I guess itβs not too bad, wouldnβt you agree?

My best impression of a dog with a tongue hanging out.
