Walking with you down a muddy road Having to get rid of our new pet toad Mommy didn’t think too much of him Especially when he tried to jump into the microwave oven Daddy said it isn’t very ladylike To have a pet toad whose name is "Spike" We need to find a home for him before dinnertime Or dad will end up feeding him to his favorite canine With heavy hearts we look for his new home He’ll need lots of friends so he won’t feel alone Finding the perfect muddy puddle we stop Waving goodbye to Spike as he starts to hop We walk home arm in arm Hoping that Spike doesn’t meet any harm As we enter the house we encounter quite a scene Mom is on a chair and letting out several screams Later on we sadly go to bed without any cake Because we forget to find a home for Billy the snake |

Looks like something I wrote in the secound grade! Oh well... ~Sweet memories~ I’m sure my mother would beg to differ of course! I can remember scenarios going down like this all the time. Me and my sister had to keep every animal we found and we usually stashed them in drawers or under the kitchen sink. As you can imagine it always ended in the same result, My mother found them, told us to find them new homes and to never bring another animal in again. (Somehow we never got the message) I’m happy to report though that me and my sister have now grown out of that stage of our lives. (We are now considered the animals) This particular memory came to me when my little sister brought in her new “pet” froggy this afternoon and asked if she could keep it in the bathe tub. I'll stop gabbing now! Hugs and Hershey Bars! |
