GETTING RELIGION

MY DOG IS GETTING RELIGION
HE ATE THE BABY JESUS OUT OF THE MANGER
THE SHEPHERDS WERE TENDING THEIR SHEEP
THE WISE MEN WERE LOOKING FOR A STAR
MARY AND JOSEPH FELL OVER IN AWE
AND JESUS WENT DOWN THE DOG’S GULLET

I LOOKED FOE CHANGES
IN MY POOCH’S BEHAVIOR
SAW NONE
HE STILL SHED
SLOBBERED HIS WATER
NEEDED TO BE WALKED
WHERE HE SALUTED EVERY TREE AS USUAL

BUT THEN HE DIDN’T HAVE TO LEARN
HOW TO BE TRUSTWORTHY
AND FAITHFUL

A FOLK LEGEND
SAYS
THAT A DOG’S LIFE IS SHORT
BECAUSE EVERYONE LIVES LONG ENOUGH
TO BECOME LOYAL   AND TRUSTWORTHY
IF THEY TRY

DOGS LEARN FASTER

IN FACT
A COMMON NAME FOR DOGS
USED TO BE
FIDO
LATIN FOR I TRUST

GOD HAS BEEN CALLED
THE HOUND FROM HEAVEN
HE WILL PURSUE YOU
TIRELESSLY

TO LAY AT YOUR FEET
THE BABY JESUS
THAT HE MAY BECOME
YOURS
