Miss You Ziggy

It is the 27th January, And I sit here all alone My memories keep me company Of times not too long gone Started again just last night When a show was going on They call that show the “Heartbeat” Filmed over on British lawn. The man whose name is David He lost his beautiful dog It died right there so near him With never a moan or sob In six more days now coming on It will be the 2nd Feb, It’ll be just two months further on From when I lost my friend There are just no words to tell you The lost I feel inside My wound still hangs there gaping And festers really wild One of by biggest worries Is just how did he die I know that he was old then With youth not on his side The vet said he was quite confused When I took my dog to him He said it looked like toxins Shutting down and setting in He gave my Zig a checkup And listened to his heart He concluded that his tick collar Could be the blame for starts But things have happened since then And I’m really not convinced I feel that there’s been foul play From one whose name is Chris. I know I’ll never know now What is the purest truth I really hope I’m wrong here Why was his end not mute I miss that dog I tell you For years just him and I I had a love I cherished That shone from those brown eyes I’ll never have another That will take my heart like he He will always be alive here While I have my memories.
