Time To Go

The time has come I think you know
the Lord is calling so I must go
I love you so much; I wish it wasn't so
I wish I could stay; I don't want to go
You're the best family a dog ever had
so kind and gentle never mean or mad
I'll never forget the day that we met
I was so lucky to become your pet
You opened your door and showed me your heart
I'll never forget you; we'll never part
You loved me and cared for me over the years
you taught me everything and took away my fears
The Lord is calling now I must go
but before I go I want you to know
I know it hurts to lose a friend
but I'll always be with you even to the end

Christmas Wish

Dear Santa,
Here's a Christmas wish
To make my Christmas glow.
All I'd like for Christmas
Is simply Best In Show.
If that's too much, dear Santa,
Then my heart would loop-de-loop,
If you'd see fit to give me
First placing in the Group.
In fact, I'd be quite satisfied,
And not show too much greed
If you'd be kind and generous,
And give me Best of Breed.
Dear Santa, I'd be merry
And really feel quite rich
If you'd arrange a gift for me
Of Winner's Dog or Bitch!
But I'd be joyful, Santa,
And I'd dance the Highland Fling
If Pup would just be happy
And BEHAVE right in the ring!!!!
