Sleeping so soundly a dream in my head,
All of a sudden I sat up in bed!

What was that odor? A horrible experience its true,
Throwing a fit on the bed was my poodle Moo-Moo.

She clawed and she rubbed across my bed in a fright,
I jumped out of bed and slammed my window so tight.

But much to my horror no relief did I get,
Moo-Moo was still on my bed throwing her fit.

I gagged and I gasped as my stomach started to turn,
Not only my nose but my eyes started to burn.

Still sleepy and unaware of what I was about to do,
I picked up my dog and said, "what's the matter with you!"

I grabbed both of her ears brought her face up to mine,
Took a deep sniff of her head and nearly went blind.

Stumbling backwards and tripping over a shoe,
Fell flat on my butt my face turning blue.

"What have you done," you goofy darn dog,
I gasped for some air my head in a fog.

"Don't you have any brains, leave the skunks alone if you please,"
I grabbed the edge of the bed and pulled myself to my knees.

Stumbling to the bath tub I put my little poodle right in,
As I grabbed for the shampoo I started to grin.

I rubbed and I scrubbed with lather galore,
That didn't do the trick it would take something more.

It was 4:30 in the morning how am I going to help her?
Reaching into the cupboard I pulled out some vinegar.

More scrubbing and rubbing from her tail to her head,
With the odor off her I then stripped the bed.

Putting the blankets in the washer I started to laugh,
I grabbed for the vinegar its my turn for the bath!
