cocoa has a job.

cocoa has an important job

cocoa is in charge of guarding the food

cocoa gave herself this important job

cocoa has a craving

cocoa is motivated

cocoa will not

take her eyes off of it

until she is home

when the food is

safely in the house

only then

can she rest

not really

Cocoa will rest

after she has

taste-tested it

to make sure

it is safe for

the rest of

the family to eat

still not really

Cocoa must do

more that one test

just to make sure

it is really, really safe

cocoa is full

cocoa is clever.
