Ruffy Met Mayor Bloomberg

IN MEMORIAM
RUFFY, by Demetria Daniels
I CALLED YOU RUFF AND SOMETIMES WUFF
SO SWEET
YOU LICKED MY FACE
YOU LICKED MY FEET
ALWAYS THERE WITH YOUR BARK
YOU WARMED MY SOUL
YOU WARMED MY HEART

YOU CAME TO MOMMY WHEN I CALLED
YOU LOVED THE PARK

AVA GAVE YOU TO ME
YOU GAVE ME JOY
MY LITTLE BOY
WHEN I HELD YOU WHEN WE WOULD PLAY
YOU WERE THERE EVERY DAY

WHEN YOU GOT SICK YOU THRIVED
THEY CALLED YOU MIRACLE
THE VETS AMAZED HOW YOU STAYED ALIVE

EVERYONE LOVED YOU YOU GENTLE SOUL
THE BROTHER AND EVEN CATZY
WHO TOOK A SWIPE AT YOU

AT SUNRISE THE BIRDS SANG
FLOWERS PURFUMED THE AIR
YOU DIED IN MY ARMS
AND I KISSED YOU WITH CARE

IN PEGGY'S GARDEN FOREVER BE
PURPLE AND PINK FLOWERS ON YOUR GRAVE
AND EACH MORNING A BIRD SYMPHONY

AND YOU IN DOG HEAVEN
IN GODS ARMS WHILE ANGELS SING
