Cecil

Oh Cecil, the Golden Doodle so fine,

A loveable and mischievous canine.

In his owners' Pittsburgh home one day,

He found something tempting in the most playful way.

 

There on the counter, a stack of cash,

Cecil couldn't resist, he made a dash.

$4,000 of paper so green,

He devoured it all, a cash-eating machine.

 

His owners were shocked, they couldn't believe,

Their furry friend had a trick up his sleeve.

But Cecil just grinned, as if to say,

"I'm investing in myself in a unique way."

 

The vet was called, in a state of dismay,

They checked him over, he was okay.

The bills were gone, nowhere to be found,

Cecil had left only bits on the ground.

 

The owners chuckled, what else could they do,

Their clever canine had quite the breakthrough.

They never expected this twist of fate,

But Cecil the Golden Doodle had an appetite that wouldn't satiate. 

 

So now they watch him like a hawk,

No more cash lying around for him to stalk.

But Cecil, oh Cecil, a legend he'll be,

For eating $4,000 so delightfully. ("Cecil") by Courtney Weaver Jr.
