Incident at Russian Boy Scout Camp by Agnes Barto

They fed the puppy milk only,

So that it would grow up healthy.

They got up at night and secretly

Ran barefoot to it recklessly

To feel its nose’s temperature.

The boys taught the smart  puppy,

Fiddled with it in the garden of kcamp.

And tf, slightly upset, but happy ,

Walked on a leash as a tame lamb.

H e got used to growling at strangers,

Just like an adult dog of a chain.

And suddenly a truck arrived bigger

And took  all  children away.

It waited: when they start gaming,

When will they light the fire.

It got used to the bright fire,

To the fact that early in the morning

The trumpet calls for a meeting.

And it barked until it  was hoarse

At the dark bushes  behind house.

It was an alone in the  garden with no soul.

It lay down on the terrace floor.

It lay flat for an hour esdsenes.

It didn't want to wag his tail,

It couldn't even eat delicatessen.

The kids remembered  it, it’s ooze,

They returned from halfway.

They wanted to enter the house,

But it didn't let them in, nay.

It came towards them at the steps,

It licked gratefully their faces.

The kids caressed it in moment,

And it barked in all its heartment .
