Oh Cricket, what have you done?
A mess in mom’s slipper is not much fun
Aim for the pads, there all over the floor
Training Cricket is a great big chore.
Ten more warnings and you’re out the door !
Mom crashed in the kitchen, stepping over the gate
Ouch, a big swollen toe was her fate.
She’s sore and mad, very upset
Wondering of it’s all worth it, I’ll bet.
Perhaps a treat reward might help the cause
Cricket has little fluffy white paws.
First, you have to get it right
Because you know who, will win this fight !
You are so cute, we can’t stay mad for long
Jenny to the rescue, says, “It would be wrong
To send him back now,
Be patient, keep trying, don’t give up
After all, Cricket’s just a pup”
Success this spring and then
We’ll all take a bow wow
