Angel Dog
Even when the Angel girls pulled your tail and tried to ride you like a horse
you took it all in stride, like the Queen you were of course
You were not perfect, like when in late spring you ran away
but, you just went exploring and didn't stay
You did the same thing the morning when we had the earthquake on my birthday
It was noon when when the phone rang about your return-right when I as about to pray
I will never forget how hurt I was that I thought you were gone
I would have missed you waking up every morning with a yawn
Even when you were bad
at you I couldn't stay mad
Like the time you bit the Thanksgiving turkey
even when you got old you were quirky
You were a comfort when someone around was in pain
your efforts never were in vain
You taught us a lesson about love
and I believe you were sent from heaven above
Today you returned there
please take care
Be a good girl when you meet my Ma
sit and give her your paw
We miss you Sheba Diva Doggie
it is because of you today are faces are soggy
