Rubble Without a Cause

I came home from work one day, And much to my surprise, Someone had leveled my old home, I could not believe my eyes... Where my bed should be, All I now could see, Was bricks, wood, and broken glass, I wouldn't sleep there that night, not me... I'd cut up my tender _ss, Found out, somehow, Someone had made a big mistake, Gave the destruction crew my address, How could such a stupid blunder, Anyone ever make? I was angry, I was sad, They destroyed, All I ever had.... Then a yelp.. From a dusty pile... My sweet little Yorkie... Had survived without my help, He came to my side, I picked him up, And held him tight to me, Nothing else did really matter... Together we still would be..
