C.W. Post

C.W. Post was the best friend I ever had
He didn't complain, he was always glad
He'd work day or night
He'd never put up a fight
All he asked for payment
Was love and affection and his food at night.
There was times I felt like losing my temper
When he'd misbehave
But then I'd stop and think
"No one's perfect"
And I felt ashamed.

I loved his big black nose
His sleepy brown eyes
And his big floppy ears
And when he wagged his tail
I felt his heart was full of cheer

C.W. was loyal till the day he died;
When that day came my heart broke
And tears filled my eyes

I'm sure dogs have a soul
And God has a Heaven for them to go;
I'm sure C.W. has his place
Because he was the best friend I'll ever know.
