The Contrasting Song

You may be a dog, but I call you my friend.

Despite your age and strength, my life you would defend.

​

Though you sniff everything,
Although you ate my shoe,

Even though you smell bad,
I love you!

​

In spite of all the barking,

Despite the mud on my shirt,

I'll never let you go, for

You're my dog!

 

Most dogs eat dog food, while you eat grass and bugs.

Your friends like to play fetch, whereas you like tearing rugs.

​

Your fur is long and thick, but it always sticks to me.

You only have three legs, however you run beautifully.
