DOGGED

Sometimes life seems more like December than May
Some days the clouds just make everything gray.
But as soon as the clouds move out of the way,
every dog has his day.

When you wish you had more time to play
and you can find no reason to shout “hooray!”
Although bad luck may come your way,
every dog has his day.

Everyone needs some time away
during those times when all goes astray.
With luck some good luck will soon come our way.
Every dog has his day.

When Fido looks like he needs cheering up
When it seems you are drinking from a half-empty cup,
Just remember what that old cliche say:
every dog has his day.
