My Baby Doll - Part Iv

You were like a daughter to me and I was like a dad. Your death was heart-breaking because it was so bad. I got the idea to call you my baby doll because that was what Mom called her cat. In August of 2013, my house became your new home and that's where you died at. It has been one year since you died. You were a great dog and that can't be denied. I found you dead in my kitchen at about ten o'clock. I would've rather had my head bashed in by a rock. I was very upset and I knew that I wouldn't get any sleep so I stayed up most of the night. I buried you the next morning and I'm sure that other pet owners can understand my plight. When a person has a pet that's as special as you, it is sure to please. I'll never forget you even if I live to be 100 and have Alzheimer's Disease. [Dedicated to Agnes (2011-2020) who died one year ago on July 11, 2020]
