Beloved Bear

Sweet beloved Bearsky -- Sister Golden Hair Surprise
With laughing gentle furry face and liquid earthtone eyes

Years ago, Curt brought you home -- what a momentous day!
A bundle of fuzzy energy, who loved to romp and play
You ran and ran through green grass, your tongue out to one side
Your lovely ears a-flyin' -- you filled his heart with pride.

When Curt fell in love with Kathy, you were always in between
Making sure that they both knew, that you were still the queen
And queen you were, in carriage -- a convertible of white
You'd ride with golden tresses waving, content both day and night

As for Kathy -- we all know -- she fell head over heels
She loved you, Bear, and would have fed you steak at every meal
You were their special golden girl, no matter what you'd chew
And you were always at their side, cuz you adored them too

Each year upon your birthday -- a celebration grand
Daphne, Bob and Bernadette would come with gifts in hand
You loved all the attention, and lapped it all right up
Along with all the tidbits, Kathy saved for her dear pup

The years flew fast -- in just a blink, your face had turned to gray
But a sweeter face there never was, loved more and more each day
You loved to lie and rest beside your mom and dad at night
Never quite content until your mom turned out the light

With all my love,
Auntie Sue
