A Dog Named Donut

Just look into my eyes,
And see my gentle stare,
The that I look,
The way that I care,
The way that you know,
When I want you to be,
Playful and happy,
Just like I can be,
I like your nice smile,
When you see me play,
With people like you,
And also half your age,
You say that I’m gentle,
And that I agree,
I absolutely love the kids,
Just like you all love me.
