From Childood - a Chap Book By Dave Austin
PAL
Pal was all waggles and wiggles loved to wrestle
He could jump his backyard fence so easily
To play with the children who loved him
Perhaps the love given on both sides that summer was enough
Perhaps I could forgive myself someday
For calling Pal across the busy street to play
But could I ever forget the thump
Pal skidding his nose
along the hot pitch street
whining desperately
Perhaps the love given on both sides would be enough
Perhaps that love would be enough for one dog’s life
