You shed way too much
You want love but weigh too much
You are not so small
But I love you very much
I can't pick you up, so stop


The author's comments:
This poem is from my best friend Katelyn R. She wanted me to post up her Tanka poem. She couldn't make a Teen Ink account so I just posted it for her.

This poem is about a dog who thinks it's a small dog that can get picked up and go everywhere. But sadly it's a big dog and weighs obviously too much.
