Getting my puppy
Asking for a dog for years
A family friend giving up their puppy
Me and my sister filled up with cheer
I assure you we were so happy
After begging and crossed fingers
Finally our mom said yes
Our excitement grew stronger
Our plan was a success
Seeking and searching for the perfect name
“Sampson or Samson” my sister wondered, “which is the right one?”
Impatiently waiting until the day came
But the number of dogs were none
My hope began decreasing
Since this had happened twice
I made the conclusion that no dog was coming
But he did, and he was quite nice
A dog as small as a ladybug slowly exited his cage
With short white fur and a collar that was blue
So cute and happy at such a young age
We played with him, hugged him and named him too
Fast forward to now as Dakota grows older
As glad and energetic as can be
He’s apart of the family now and forever
He’s here with the family and here with me
Our wish came true
We finally got a puppy
Long white fur and excitement too
I assure you we were so happy
