Zippy

Cate Henderson

Rondeau
Oh Zippy the joy she brings
And how she loves swings
And her daily walks
We could go blocks for blocks
We treat her like kings
She has us all wrapped around her paw like rings
Wild and free she sure has her own wings
How she loves the couch that’s where she docks
Oh Zippy
She has a good palate full of all things
And when she sees peanut butter she springs
From her little paws that look like socks
To her bark when she talks
Her barking song she sings
Oh Zippy
