  • KING’S THRONE

    A bark that was so direct

    The alert that had effect

    It was cousin’s dog named King

    He was King of the house

    He didn’t even have a spouse

    There wasn’t even a mouse

    King was an obedient Dog

    In fact, he was well trained

    His mind was sharp

    Mark my word

    King was definitely man’s friend

    Right to the end

    King died from old age on May 1, 2022

    His eyes were saying Goodbye

    I tried holding back my tears

    But they poured throughout the atmosphere

    I always brought King a gift

    My family would say “Lucky Stiff”

    I called King cousin King

    He was part of the family

    King would always stay by me

    I was always his petter

    But when it came to King’s bed

    He let everyone know that his bed was his lair instead

    His message was “I live here”

    I will miss seeing King always greeting me at door

    I mean that for sure

    As I write this, I am reflecting back on King’s friendly ways

    King was camera shy

    Didn’t like pictures that’s why

    Christmas Days will never be the same

    Yet I will have love for King that will always remain

    Bark in praise

    SIP in God’s amaze

    We will see each other again one day.
