The other day I placed a call to Mike
I asked him how it was up there in Heaven
He said he’d found so many things to like
He’s fallen for a Schnauzer who's named Bevin
His brother Duffy then got on the phone
Heaven’s proving swell for Duffy too
Each morning he awakes to find a bone
Plus shoes and glasses and other stuff to chew
I mourn the dogs’ departure every day
They were the very keystone of my life
It helps a tiny bit with my dismay
To tell myself they’re fine in afterlife
I’m sad I’ll never have a dog again
Perhaps that’s why I dream of times back then
