Sweetie's aunty bought a puppy
Asked Swetie to meet her
Told Sweetie, 'Don't be afraid
Would you like to greet her?
'When you want to make a friend
You can give them a treat
If you don't have a thought or gift
You give them something nice to eat!'
So Sweetie gave the dog a treat
The dog is now her friend
The dog and Sweetie, both are happy
Thaat's how all good stories end.
But I must add a moral
About how to run one's life
About how to end a quarrel
Anf fix the whole world's strife
Sweetie's learned to give and take
And how to make a friend
How friendships mend before they break
The trend's find love to send and in the end.

Sweetie' is my grandchild. I changed her name to Swetie to make the poem more universal, and to give privacy and security to the child.
