I would like to tell you all of a time when I visited my family They think I am a super dog the best you will ever see I am a Cairn Terrier named Alex, I growl but I am not bad And the tale that I will now relate could have been very sad. As we entered the house and I trotted through the living room door There was a shout, and something flew past me landing on the floor, I picked it up in my mouth thinking someone had bought a new toy When everyone shouted "Drop it, put it down there's a good boy." How was I to know that Twinkie the budgie was flying about? It must have startled the old bird when she heard them shout. It wasn't my fault that I pounced and got her in my jaws Any dog would have done the same if it landed at their paws. Twinkie was none the worse although I had caught her wing She can still hop around her cage and sit upon her swing The family are very wary now and make sure she is in her cage Because Twinkie is twelve years old which is a ripe old age. For saying Twinkie is getting old with one foot in the grave The fright has given her new life and I think I'm very brave
