In a house by the hill, not too far from the stream, Lived a pup with a shine, like a sunbeam in cream.

Annie Oakley by name, a black lab so fine, With a heart full of joy and a love quite divine.

6

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

In her room filled with toys and with bones big and small, Annie learned something new, most surprising of all.

7

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

For her bed was a mess, a true sight for sore eyes, And she thought, "Should it be such a chaotic surprise?"

8

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

So, she watched with great care, as her humans would do, Making beds in the morning, their movements so true.

9

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

With a flick and a flap, and a tuck nice and neat, Their beds looked so inviting, a marvelous feat.

10

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

Annie barked with delight, "I can do this as well! I can tidy my bed, make it look oh so swell!"

11

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

With determination, she started her task, Learning to make her bed, is that too much to ask?

12

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

First, she took her dog blanket, all crumpled and tossed, Shook it high, shook it low, till no wrinkles were crossed.

13

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

Then she placed it just right, on her bed, nice and tight, Stepping back, she admired the incredible sight.

14

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

Next, she gathered her toys, each one had its own place, Arranged around neatly, filling spaces with grace.

15

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

Her bone to the left, her ball snug to the right, Annie smiled at her work, what a beautiful sight!

16

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

But the task was not over, oh no, not quite yet, For a final touch needed, on this task she was set.

17

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

With a leap and a twirl, Annie landed just so, In the middle of bed, like the star of a show.

18

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

There she lay, quite content, in her bed made just right, Dreaming dreams of adventures in the deep of the night.

19

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

Annie Oakley, the lab, had learned something new, That a bed well-made brings joy, and comfort too true.

20

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

So, remember, dear children, when your rooms seem a fright, And your beds all untidy, in the morning's light.

21

Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN

With a flick and a flap, and a tuck here and there, You can make your own bed, with some love and some care.
