The Puggily Smidgeburner and the Prettisome Guru
The Puggily Smidgeburner and the Prettisome Guru
embark on finding Pug love at the town's rare breeds zoo
The guru’s desperately trying to find sad Puggily a date
and if things go to plan perhaps they’d eventually mate
They pass by many enclosures, stopping at the Jangaroo
but Janga was busy bouncing; as a mate she wouldn’t do
Poor Puggily’s crest starts to fall as they peer in every cage
guru says he mustn’t give up hope - he’s such a wise sage!
At the end of an overgrown path they see a big red sign
It says ‘endangered species’, please do not cross this line
But to Puggily Smidgeburner’s amazement and surprise
There’s a female Smidgeburner right before his very eyes
Prettisome Guru has a quiet word with the zoo keeper
he arranges a date so that lonely Puggily can meet her
Puggily’s date is Delicassa she is beautiful and sweet
and Puggily’s determined to sweep her right off her feet
They agree to meet next day on the dot at half past two
but Delicassa arrives a little late, as females often do!
She’s got tiny rainbow braids adorning her blonde hair
Puggily holds her paw, they chat away without a care
Very soon they are inseparable, he’s found his mate for life
after a whirlwind romance Delicassa becomes Puggily’s wife
In time she gives birth to Carena, their family’s complete
and both of them agree married life just cannot be beat!
