Ode to Ripley
I remember when you were small,
When I would throw that little ball.
Off you'd go as fast as you could,
Just like a good puppy always should.
Into my lap you would run and jump,
Landing there with a hearty 'Thump!"
Even as a puppy you were big,
And being a "Show Dog" was your gig.
You were good, oh yes you were,
Other dogs would call you "Sir".
Some out there said that you were dumb,
but soon a Champion you did become!
As you got older you never forgot,
The times we spent weren't all for not.
Every time you saw my face,
You would run all over the place.
Around the table and the couch above,
It felt so good to feel that love.
Someday, I may get a dog of my own,
But you will always stand out alone.
You'll always be my special puppy,
I'll really miss you, my Buh-Buppy.
