Ditto, the Dalmatian
only had one spot.
He wasn't very happy
as his siblings had a lot.
His mum and dad had plenty,
his cousins did as well.
His aunt resembled chicken pox,
but never itched like hell!
Ditto was so fed up,
he found a black felt pen.
He painted on enormous spots
and was well-splattered then.
Now Ditto's sporting many spots
and struts around, so vain.
Though he has to be quite careful,
when he goes out in the rain!

First of all, i would like to thank you for entering this contest, just by doing this, you are giving hope to everyone that this has affected. I love the idea and flow of the poem, but there was one thing in there that seemed to ruin it, i know it really isn't a swear word, but i really didn't like the use of the word "hell". I know its a small thing, and it would be really hard to change, but i don't think this would be very good for him with that in it. Sorry if i offended you in any way. Thanks for your entry.
