Buried With Your Pet
New York has a brand-new law
And graveyards must comply;
Now pets and owners may be buried
Jointly when they die.
For dogs and cats no longer need
To languish in a grave
Intended just for animals;
Their owners simply save
The ashes of their favorite pet,
The feathered or the furred,
So when the owner’s time has come,
Together they’re interred.
What happens next we cannot know
But with this new endeavor,
Eternity will now provide
For scooping poop forever!
