I got a new puppy,
Almost two months ago,
her coat so soft,
so shiny brown...
...such a clumsy little girl,
she couldn't help but fall down,
at first we didn't want her,
too much trouble for us,
but then we fell in love with her,
and she was taken from us...
and now we cry,
we can't help but shed tears,
her memory still strong...
...I hear her scratching at the door...
..whimpering in the night...
I see her running throught the living room...
jumping on the couch...
strowing my underwear all through the house...
acting so proud at the new the new trick she learned...
and following Jeremy through the fields...
stealing Gordon's bone...and cuddling up to him at night...
wanting to please...
wanting to love...
and be loved...
and now sorrowly missed...
