DUFFY THE DRAGON AND THE FITNESS JAMBOREE
After school Duffy waited for his friend one dayIn front of the palace so they could go play
With twins Lucy and Luke as well as Barker the dog
They often played catch, volleyball or leapfrog
But lately when his friend Billy came by after school
He wasn’t much in the mood
for playing at all
He preferred the computer, game toys or TV
Which hurt Duffy’s feelings as it would you or me.
When Billy finally showed up that day at the gate
He said “Thanks for waiting Duffy, I’m sorry I’m late
But I think I’ll go home and turn on the TV
Why don’t you come too and watch it with me.”
Duffy thanked Billy saying the twins would be waiting
They wanted to play catch or to go roller-skating
“Where’s Barker?” said Duffy, “perhaps he can come play?”
“I haven’t seen him lately, I hope he’s O.K?”
Billy said sadly his dog had been to the vet
Who had told Billy’s family that their favourite pet
Was not very healthy as he’d gained so much weight
From not enough walks and too much food on his plate
