Our Obedient, Respectful Daughter

our daughter
if nothing else
is so respectful
of her elders and so,
consequently,
she is obedient

why, just the other day
her teacher asks
in Nature revision:
What do you call the outside of a tree?
and my little girl so honest
which is something else she is
confesses her ignorance

Bark, Susan
says the teacher
offering the answer;
and Susan
ever obedient and respectful
she goes:
Bow-wow!
Bow-wow!

Oh, our Susan
she’s so respectful and obedient
we’re so, so proud of her
