Birds, cats, and dogs all make our house their home

Birds, cats, and dogs all make our house their home

They chirp, meow, and bark from dusk till dawn

Homebodies all, they rarely care to roam

They love to feel the sun on our front lawn.

We also have a lively pair of mice

And five small fish that swim the whole day through

Plus bunnies--two--whose soft fur feels quite nice

My mother says we soon will have a zoo!

My sister wants a sweet potbellied pig

My father wants a turtle in a tank

Myself, I truly think a pig's too big.

I tell my sister, "Get a piggy bank!"

Sometimes at night I'll dream in deepest dark

Our little house is really Noah's ark!
