We lost our little Cocoa, Had to put her to sleep.
Her loss is so devastating, Our eyes still do weep.
That tiny little dog, So frail yet so strong
Showed us her love, Though not with us long.
She knew how to give, Every day of her life.
Never once giving a clue, Of her own terrible strife.
Running through the house, With her cute two paw hop,
We secretly hoped That it would never stop.
Out in the driveway, Sunning with Sadie
Cocoa always behaved Like the perfect little lady.
Our hearts she did steal, With each passing day.
Now she is with us, Forever to stay.
In life her little tongue, Was so delightful to see.
In death that same tongue, Showed she is resting peacefully.
We said our goodbye, To our beautiful friend
But we know in our hearts, Her love will not end.
