A Summer Day Turned Sour

Steven West

It was a hot day in the summer.

I took a walk in the park.

All of a sudden I heard a dog

Make an enormous bark.

The dog was a French poodle.

He was being very loud.

He did a funny dance by me

Which attracted a curious crowd.

When his dance was over,

The crowd gave out a cheer.

The dog did a little bow

And then went after my beard.

He pawed at me and yapped at me.

He was very strange indeed.

But the worst thing that he did to me,

Is that he stood by my shoes and peed.

My summer day had turned sour.

I was upset and angry indeed.

For it isn't very pleasant,

To have your shoes coated with pee.
