A Dog-walker’s Dirge
The vet has said that you must walk:
Foot up, foot down, foot up.
Walk now or you will never learn!
Please walk, my little pup.
Walk to the mess for tasty scraps,
Walk right, and left, and right;
And walk upstairs for treats and love
At all hours of the night.
Walk on fields, and on the streets,
And jump, and play, and run!
And walk, a proud and tired mum,
To bring me to your son.
And now that end times call you home,
Walk up, and up, and up,
To the highest heaven that's just for dogs--
Walk proud, my little pup!
