I guess Kodo's situation calls for more than this, but I felt that this
would sum up Kodo's thoughts on the current situation...
Kodo's Version...
Mummy! Where we goin'?
Are we going out today?
Daddy! What we doing?
Are we goin' out to play?
Mummy! This is fun!
Many people, new to see
Daddy! Did you do this
All special - just for me?
Mummy! I am tired
This day has been so long.
Daddy! When we going?
I really must be gone.
Mummy! Who's this man?
Who knocked me on the tooth?
Daddy? Shall I lick him?
Or would that seem uncouth?
Mummy! Who's this lady,
Who's taking me away?
Daddy! Please don't let her!
I haven't been astray!
Mummy, what'd I do,
That you send me far from home.
Daddy! Was I naughty?
Why am I all alone?
Mummy, where are you?
I've been searching far and wide.
Daddy, I am so frightened,
I need you by my side!
Mummy people see me,
They feed me every day.
Daddy, people pass me,
But never want to play.
Mummy, I miss your presence,
I miss your love and joy.
Daddy I need your guidance,
Your comfort (and my toys)
Mummy, it's been a month now
I'm sad and lonely too
Daddy, will you forgive me
For what I did that hurt you?
I really didn't mean to,
I don't know just what I did.
I tried to be good for you,
I even minded what I said!
I'm sorry and I mean it,
Just tell me what I did wrong,
When I come back I'll heed you,
I've just been gone so long.
Please Mummy do come get me.
I love and miss you so.
Please Daddy come and help me,
If I did something, tell me so.
It's been an awful long time,
And Mummy hasn't been.
The strangers aren't too bad I guess,
They keep me fed and clean.
I'm frightened still and lonely,
I guess I'm staying now
The people here don't play much,
But in time I'll train them how.
Mummy, my heart is really heavy,
Though my spirits they are high.
I know that with your love for me,
Your presence will be nigh.
Daddy, I want to cuddle up to you,
Even play comes second best
I want your friendship awful bad
I'll give up all the rest.
I'll give up all those lovely treats
Those socks for chewing on
I'll give up even raisin sheets!
(Maybe after some are gone)
For now I lie in this cold cage,
Dreaming more of home.
Dreaming of a life so sweet,
It's makes me more alone.
I'm missing you so terrible.
I'm missing you so bad!
I want you to come back and now...
How about it? Come on Dad!
Sam
