A Tribute To Taz

When I met Taz, he was full grown
A perfect example of his breed
Well taken care of and so loved
Everyone would have to concede.

Although there were many with him
Only one to him was devine
Judy was simply his whole world 
Shortly, she would also be mine

The time seemed to short we had him
Where we had to live, he couldn't stay
Missed a lot, but better we thought
In the country he'd run and play!

One bright day when Taz woke up
No one knew, it would be his last
He fought for what was his, but lost
I guess, that the die had been cast

Taz was sweet and willing to please
His love and loyalty  were profound
He left this world as a warrior
When to the death, he stood his ground!
