My Dog Cora
Cora was my favourite pet
a black labrador/Doberman dog
we loved to walk in the fields
in all weathers except when fog
We lived out in the countryside
enjoying the nature all around
Cora was my constant companion
travel miles aplenty together abound
Cora had amazing sound hearing
could hear parents car a mile away
good watchdog barked real loud
obedient to your word quick to stay
In my mid 20s Cora passed away
during it's latter years would take fits
so vet advised mercifully to put it down
thinking back now my heart still hits
The memories of Cora still linger on
happiness and contentment it did bring
my black lab had such smooth coat
such great thoughts of it so to cling
