Dogs

(after Ogden Nash)

The dog is man’s best friend.
He has a tail on one end.
Up in front he has teeth.
And four legs underneath.
Dogs like to bark.
They like it best after dark.
A dog that is indoors Wants to be outdoors.
But let him out — and what then?
He wants to be in again.

Dogs cheer up people who are frowning³
And rescue⁴ people who are drowning.⁵
Dogs in the country have fun.
They run and run and run.
But in the city this species Is walked around on leashes.⁶
Dogs are friendly, loyal and honest.
Of all the pets I like them most.

²rare — редкий
³to frown — хмуриться
⁴to rescue — спасать
⁵to drown — тонуть
