My New Gotcha Day Toy
Woo hoo! Today is my Gotcha Day. I first learned about Gotcha Days when my friend Rumpy celebrated his. All these years I haven’t been able to celebrate my birthday because my people don’t know when it is. Now I get to celebrate Gotcha Day instead – the day my people took me home with them. I even got a new toy and my people promised me some more goodies later.
Since it’s a special day I thought I’d post something a little different. Rumpy is good at encouraging his friends to write poems and I posted this one on his blog on his Gotcha Day. It seems like the thing to do to post it here today.
Bongo’s Gotcha Day
I like to run
I run for fun
But it really got me in trouble
They locked me away
For more than a day
It kind of burst my bubble
Dog jail’s no good
I don’t like the food
And other dogs barking all night
I’m stuck here for sure
My brain is a blur
To live like this is such a fright
But they came, yes they came
And they tossed me a ball
Then they left just as fast
One more ball – Is that all?
The next day I saw them
My leash they did get
They took me and told me
I’d be their new pet
At first I was scared
When I saw my new home
The cat didn’t like me
And the yard I did roam
But now I’m adjusted
I’m happy to say
Especially when someone
Is willing to play
