Iguana
I`ll never forget the Saturday
that Larry brought you home to me.
At 29 gms you were smaller than a remote control.
We strengthened your arms & legs
by having you walk on a pillow.
The vet wasn't`t sure you would survive,
but you did.
What joy love & happiness you brought me.
Anybody that ever saw you was
amazed by your beauty & presence.
At times you could be "territorial"
with some people,
but never with me.
It was funny to see some repairmen
look so frightened when they first saw you.
By then you were the size of a "dachshund".
The vet thought you got so big because
you were never in a cage or aquarium.
You took over our big bedroom.
When you died you weighed over 18 lbs.
You were never sick
but one day you suddenly died.
You meant everything to us.
We miss you everyday.
It's been over a year since you left us &
I'm still heartbroken.
You are our lovebug our bullyboy our creampuff.
