I bought a pet tomatoand I tried to teach him tricks,but he wasn't any good atcatching balls or fetching sticks.He could never catch a Frisbee,and he wouldn't sit or speak,though we practiced every afternoonand evening for a week.He refused to shake or wave or crawlor beg or take a bow,and I tried, but couldn't make him barkor get him to meow.He was terrible at playing dead.He couldn't jump a rope.When he wouldn't do a single trickI simply gave up hope.Though I liked my pet tomato,I returned him with reGREt.Boy, I sure do hope this watermelonmakes a better pet.
