Memoriam
Pippin died last night
A perpetual motion puppy
crushed
by a machine
An innocent floppy eared mutt
lost to this earth
Pippin died last night
His tail wagging in a last goodbye
His soulful eyes dazed
His fragile body crushed
Pippin died last night
To be reborn perhaps
To bring joy and happiness
to a more deserving soul
Pippin died last night and his world
cried
Tears shed for the happiness he brought
and the memories he left
Pippin died last night.
