In Loving Memory
1989 - 2001
I remember the day we met you and I
Now eight years have gone quickly by
You were skinny and dirty and had a huge grin
With those beautiful brown eyes my heart you did win
Together we travelled through good times and bad
I will always remember the love that we had
You didn't have discipline, manners or grace
But you always stayed with me no matter the place
The time has come for you to be taken away
In this peaceful earth under the gum tree you shall lay
Lovingly embraced in the arms of heaven you will be
To fly with the angels and watch over me
Soar free my loyal and special friend without fer or pain
For one day with sunshine we shall meet again
