Sweet little dog so soft and warm
I wonder how you came to be born
Did your mother know your name?
You were ripped from her all the same.
You're dark as night; more joyful than the Sun
The joy you bring is an unending dose of fun
You tuck you small body with me in my chair
Your warm heart beating makes me aware
Of the soft tender loving you have in your eyes
The impish cavorting if you're given a surprise
We can walk in the meadow we can walk on the beach
But your happy little silence is one I can't breach
And I wonder at things running round in your head
When we're having that argument as you jump in my bed.
