                         "A ROTT OWNER'S PRAYER"

 

 LORD, DON'T LET ME FORGET,

        HOW I LOVE MY TRUSTY PET.

 HELP ME LEARN TO DISREGARD,

        CANINE CRATERS IN MY YARD.

 SHOW ME HOW TO BE A BUDDY,

        EVEN WHEN MY SOFA'S MUDDY.

 DON'T ALLOW MY ROTT TO MUNCH,

        THE POSTAL CARRIERS FOR LUNCH.

 SHEILD MY NEIGHBOR'S CAT FROM VIEW,

        GUIDE MY STEPS AROUND THE DOO.

 TRAIN ME NOT TO CURSE AND SCOWL,

        WHEN IT'S PUPPY'S NIGHT TO HOWL.

 GRANT I SHAN'T AWAKE IN FEAR,

        WITH A COLD NOSE IN MY EAR.

 GIVE ME PATIENCE WITHOUR END,

        HELP ME BE MY ROTTS BEST FRIEND.
