MY PAL BOUNCER (BUD)
——————–
We were pals me and bud
you were 3 when we met.
Your coat all black and shinny
Your eyes so big and brown
You barked and waged your tail
I want to play, I want to play.
The playful years went by,
but your zest for life kept going.
You were still a pup on the inside.
Only the grey told your real age.
Your life was starting to turn
another page.
One day I noticed you played
a little less.
You were happy lying in sleeply
dreamland.
The wag of your tail was slowing.
Your eyes were shinning less
that was the start of you tiring.
I guess.
No more would you play
In the house and sleep you`d stay.
I`d sit and watch and wonder.
In your dreams, do we still play.
Your the best pal I ever had.
Tonight I write this in silence.
Today I not only lost my dog
I lost my best pal to
some how I thought you`d be here forever.
Our secret talks that only we understood
are now silent forever.
Tonight your sleeping in heaven.
Never again will I say good night, bud
But what hurts the most is we never got to say
GOODBYE.
IN MEMORY OF MY BEST PAL THE ONE THE ONLY
BOUNCER.
Best pal,
