I lost a precious associate,
my dog Bumfuzzle,
no one left to teach me unconditional love,
and there is no one to bark.
I've known you since you,
were just a patchy little puppy,
I watched you grow into,
a good-looking bow-wow friend.
I'll always think of you,
I'll keep your memory alive,
the painful memories,
that has left an ache in my heart.
But now it’s over,
you're gone forever,
all I have is your picture in a frame,
on my wall as remembrance.
