PUPPY'S DAY
OF 
OUTDOOR PLAY

Step into our home grounds,

where my sis and I play.

We run speedy circles,

to kick-start a new day!

• • • 

“Good morning,” to our neighbor dogs,

oh may I introduce us!

My sis and I are the new, kind pups,

and we want to earn your trust.

• • • 

My sis is hiding in grass so tall,

I cannot see her moves.

 A waggy tail is pointing up,

I finally gather the clues.
