Ralph Went Kerplop
Ralph had been a happy pup
running and jumping and playing
Greeting our family with affectionate licks
eagerly learning a barrelful of tricks
Then one day, Ralph went kerplop
his doggy motor just plain stopped
Only four years old, he decided 'life's over'
farewell to days chasing bees in the clover
Eating and sleeping, our Ralph waxed fat
No one knew where his poor head was at
Then we found him a 'Rhoda,' and in a jiffy
Ralph came alive again, decked out and spiffy
Now Ralph and Rhoda have six pups of their own ~
'Cos there's more to a dog's life than fetching a bone
