Killer the Wonder Dog... just wandered in one day
With no fanfare... he decided to stay
From somewhere... a collar was found
An old blanket.. to keep him off the ground
From days to weeks...then months to years
That little black dog...calmed all fears
He was content...just to lay at my feet
Always ready ...to sit up for a treat
In later years...his age began to show
Yet always excited...for the walks we would go
Killer the Wonder Dog...had wandered in one day
With no fanfare...his life slipped away
So long little buddy...I enjoyed your stay
Ron, I am so very sorry for your loss. We place so much love into our pets and they return it mny times over. Killer came into your life for a reason and you two put 18 years into dedicated living with each other.
My blessings and prayers are with you.
