The Pug of Purest Gold

A Pug’s your pal for always, 
Through cloudy days or fine; 
She’ll lie stretched out beside you, 
And curly tail untwine. 
Perhaps your world’s gone haywire, 
And things seem far from fair; 
To her it matters little, 
So long as you are there. 
This chubby bundle’s waiting 
In Failure or success, 
And from her warmth of welcome, 
Great wealth you can possess. 
She’s one of life’s great treasures, 
Whose value is untold, 
For every Pug is minted, 
From the fine and purest gold. 


Dedicated to My fav pugs Mack and Sweetheart who were taken too soon

I like how you ended this poem Thomas. My condolences concerning Mack & Sweetheart. We will see our pets again one day & that day will never end.

oh no Thomas...I am soooo sooo sorry. I just lost my golden retriever and am having such a hard time. I have a 12 year old pug named Mugsy who seems to be depressed losing his brother Bo. 15 years old? Wow that's incredible. Be blessed I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers today.. take care Thomas :( -luloo
