Crayon Dog
Crayon Dog
I remember so long ago
I was just a boy no more than six
Left alone for five minutes with a box of Crayolas
A blank white wall was my canvas
I drew and drew
To me that bunch of lines was a beautiful dog
Orange, blue and green
My Mom came in
She was mad, but she just smiled
And she drew a cat right next to my dog
She loved me
That was so long ago
Now I have kids of my own
When they find their canvases
I will just smile
Sit next to them
And help them draw a better dog than I did
