Fun Time Minis

This assignment was to write a four-line verse in which the first line was "If I had a pet, I think..." Some of us couldn't write just one!




If I had a pet, I think
I'd like a little bunny
Soft and furry, cute and sweet,
And I'd name it "Honey."


If I had a pet, I think
I might like a rhino
They can't see good, just like me,
And they're sometimes albino.


If I had a pet, I think
I would like a puppy
It would keep me company
Better than a guppy.


If I had a pet, I think
I'd like a giraffe,
It wouldn't make much noise, you see,
But it might make me laugh.


If I had a pet, I think
Pigs would get my vote,
We'd just eat and play in mud,
And on each other dote.

If I had a pet I think
It would have to be a skunk
Just in case it started to stink
I'd shove him in a trunk!


If I had a pet I think
I would get a little kitty
Bow I would put in her fur, maybe pink
And that would make her pretty !


If I had a pet I think
I'd want a wild black horse
He would be of a champion link
Don't you think? Of course !


If I had a pet I think
My hubby it would be
He isn't such brilliant dink
But he sure does love me!!

If I had a pet I think
It would definitely have to be
A pretty little hummingbird
For all the world to see.

But as it stayed in its cage
Singing a pretty song
I would feel bad for it
All the whole day long.

So if I had a hummingbird
For all the world to see.
I would have to let it go
And set it to be free.

If I had a pet, I think
It'd have to be a pig
I'd teach how to do some tricks
like dance a little jig


If I had a pet, I think
I'd be a little chinchilla
so soft and sweet and cuddly
I think I'd name it "Zilla"


If I had a pet, I think
I'd like to have a spider
but grandpa don't like spiders so
from him I'd have to hide 'er


If I had a pet, I think
it would be a little rat
I'd feed it lots of goodies
to make it nice and fat

If I had a pet I think
It would have to be a parrot
So that he could talk to me
And I would give him a carrot

I hope it wouldn't talk too loud
'Cause the dogs might yap all day
And that just wouldn't be allowed
Then it wouldn't be able to stay

If I had a pet I think
It would have to be a mouse
Running around its little wheel
And it could stay in the house

Of course it would be in a cage
But we could all watch and see
It running and running around
Oh how happy I would be

But I do like my dogs and cat
So that would have to do
I'd really like so many pets
Then it would be like a zoo

If I had a pet
It would have to be a monkey
Housing it would be simple
It could live in a tree.


If I had a pet
It would have to be a bat.
What a pair we would make,
Me and my pet bat, Matt.


If I had a pet
A flea it would be
But keeping from scratching
Would be mighty tricky.


If I had a pet
My boss it would be
Whenever I asked for a raise
He'd say "yes" to me!

If I had a pet, I think,
it would be a mouse
I'd train him well in everything
he could run all thru the house


If I had a pet, I think,
I would get a frog
He'd have to be real careful tho
so not to be eat by the dog


If I had a pet, I think,
I'd get a little bat
oh how cute they are to me
he'd probably chase the cat


If I had a pet, I think,
a bird would be just fine
I'd teach him how to talk to me
and he would be divine

If I had a pet, I think
I’d have a potbelly pig
He’d have the best table scraps
and grow to be so big.


If I had a pet, I think
I’d have a lamb so sweet
I’d dress her up in bows of pink
and make her bed with a satin sheet
