"Thunder"
He was such a handsome puppy,
his eyes so full of trust
So we chose him for our family
(Or more likely he chose us)
Bobby
named him Thunder,
a name that fit him well
But with his special qualities
no name alone could tell
He was so majestic
as he stood so proud and tall
A protector of the children,
and devoted to them all
He'd bound outside to greet us,
like a long lost friend
Relieved that with us home
his world was right again
People fool themselves
into thinking pets need them
How quickly we discovered how
much more we needed him
We planned on many years
but the news was very grim
So no longer were we able
to share our lives with him
Thunder was the best
so God needed him above
For a lonely angel
in need of a friend's love
We'll find another puppy
our lives and love to share
But forever in our hearts
our Thunder will be there
(poem written by a friend)
