In Memory of our Beloved Dog Joey

Our Joey

Once upon a time in a state far away,
Laid Joey, a dog, it was the month of May.
Without a care in the world
He basked in the sun
Waiting in his cage to be the next one.

There laid Joey, silent as can be

Inwardly saying, please, please pick me.
It wasn’t long after that Joey came home

Now no, no longer alone.

Four months only and having been mistreated
Joey was our joy and his first life defeated.
Joey got to play and run with his master
A traveling dog he became ever after.

Joey was a dog who didn’t fetch bones
or even try to run away from home
He liked to eat and he liked to sleep
and he just liked to be left alone.

Several years later when Joey was nine
We decided to bring home another canine.
B-I-G mistake, as Joey didn’t care
all he wanted was for him to disappear.
Years went by and he finally gave in,
realizing Levi was truly now kin.

His last years of life were quiet

Really, no strife, just a strict diet.
Joey one day decided not to eat,
before the week ended,

he was limp and weak.

On Monday morning we called the vet
So we could offer him everlasting rest.
We said our goodbye’s and let him go,
ever to remember him in our souls.
A year has gone by and we miss him so,
Never will we forget our dear friend and

great companion, JoJo.
