My “Pet”

In the U.S., May is National Pet Month. In honor of this, please enjoy this poem:

I have a pet; his name is Stick;He doesn’t drool, bite or lick.He’s a rescue pet; I’m not a liar;He was about to be thrown on a fire.I don’t have to spend money on grooming or feed;And he goes where I tell him without a lead.His maintenance doesn’t cost a dime,But the neighbors don’t like him—he “barks” all the time!
