A Furbaby's Love Never Ends
Simplistic days when he was all we had,
the runt of the litter, our tiny sweet boy-
he was never hyper, mischievous nor bad,
just loved his favorite yellow ducky toy.
He was always so stubborn and smug-
for he was my beautiful stinky pug.
Time passed and our baby girl was born,
that Mugsy made his “feel sorry for me” face-
he was always my first child, so I was torn,
then I noticed his sister he started to embrace.
They snuggled and wiggled and played,
a happy family of four was made.
He never cried nor was sick at the vet.
My Mugs was so easy to love and adore-
Slept by my feet, how could I forget?
No, I could not love my sweet boy more.
For he was the one who saved me from woe
when I was having a hard time letting go.
He let me weep on that stubby curly tail
whenever I was sad when my sister died-
The only healing felt was from my good pal,
and as I cried, he stayed by my side.
For fourteen years he was my constant friend,
the rainbow bridge called,
(my heart appalled)
though love did not end.
I am so grateful he was in my life for awhile-
for my sweet boy gave me my favorite smile.
