Ole Pup

I remember ole pup
When you were young
How playful
How mischievous
So full of yourself

Nose to the ground
Nose in the air
Nose where it shouldn't
Nose everywhere

Living for love
Living for a hug
Chasing the cat
Sniffing a bug

I remember ole pup
When you came to stay
It seems like only yesterday
