ODE TO MY DOGGY DADDY –
Evermore My Father & Friend
I saw your face, right from the start
You took my paw; I won your heart
Your eyes met mine
If by design
Evermore my father and friend
You kept me warm within your coat
Took me home where you would dote
Patting my head
Kept me well-fed
Evermore my father and friend
You taught me how to fetch and play
To sit, to beg, and how to stay
We have such fun
Second to none
Evermore my father and friend
When I am old and cannot see
I know you will take care of me
I may be slow
But truly know
Evermore my father and friend
And when it is my epilogue
I perish a most grateful dog
Please don’t be sad
You are my dad
Evermore my father and friend
