I WORRY (something that really bothers you)
I CRY (something that makes you very sad)
I AM (repeat the first line of the poem)

I UNDERSTAND (something you know is true)
I SAY (something you believe in)
I DREAM (something you dream about)
I TRY (something you make and effort to do)
I HOPE (something you hope for)

I am soft and striped
I wonder when you will feed me
I hear birds chirping
I see leaves blowing
I want only salmon
I am soft and striped

I pretend to be a dog
I feel very hungry
I touch and knead when I am sleepy
I worry about dinner
I cry when you leave me
I am soft and striped

I understand when you speak
I say 'i want to eat'
I dream about little fishies
I try to be good
I hope that you will love me
I am soft and striped
