GOOD NIGHT DUDLEY
This is my story the way it was told
my poor dog has died he wasn't that old
I remember when I saw him it was love at first sight
and I picked up my puppy and held him so tight
At first I had one pup then two now it's three
but these are the babies that are meant for me.
I picked you from the litter in such a big hurry
and there you say so small and so furry
You were so soft so frisky and cuddly
it was right then and there that I named you Dudley
I'll always remember the first time I looked in your eyes
never imagining the strong bond and ties
I gave you a home some food and a bed
and told you I loved you that's all that was said
We played and we ran and went for our walk
and sometimes you'd look at me as if trying to talk
you had so much fun with your "brothers" and me
as you all left your mark on the big old oak tree
Everynight I would tuck in my three little "boys"
and be kept awake by their licking and snores
It never annoyed me not even late at night
as I knew they were safe that they were all right
You loved visiting Santa and rides in the car
you'd get so excited you'd beam like a star
Then it happened so suddenly your life was cut short
This couldn't be happening is all that I thought
I never imagined that it would come to this
and Oh how I miss my third Good Night Kiss
They say it gets easier with each passing day
but right now I think there can't be a way
for I wake up each morning with a tear in my eye
from lying awake doing nothing but cry
You left us behind your two brothers and me
I pray for you daily that you're well and happy
You were so devoted my dear little friend
and I'll miss you each day 'till we meet again.
I love you sweetheart.
God Bless You.
