Rough and wet of tongue
silky of fur and hide
bestest bestest friend
on a lifelong ride
Paws to pavement
ground and grass
ever by my side
Companions to the bitter end
simple joy and pride
As the winter years roll on
as we slow and creak
in the company of canines
never alone or weak
Paws to the carpet
tile and or wood
if only they could speak
Comrades in silence be
both of us

Rough and wet of tongue
silky of fur and hide
bestest bestest friend
on a lifelong ride
Paws to pavement

Companions to the bitter end

As the winter years roll on
as we slow and creak
in the company of canines
never alone or weak
Paws to the carpet

if only they could speak
Comrades in silence be
