His Loss Was Sad

Nicolas Simpson 1983 (Illinois)



Bad words comes from his mouth,
You know he's from the south,
He doesn't hold nothing back any more,
Feeling a shirt just tore,
He falls to the floor,
Tomorrow he will be sore,
That's all if he gets up,
He left a  young pup,
Taking the pup into my care,
It has short black hair,
The man just got the dog,
The man died in the fog,
It was a sad day,
With nothing to say,
My mouth dropped,
And his world just stopped,
With family and friends near by,
And hearing them cry,
It breaks my heart,
We were friends from the start,
Missing him each day,
Spreading his ashes along the bay..........
