Thinking of you Rosie, as my eyes well up with tears
We lost our little sweetheart of more than fourteen years
Your name was chosen from the flower “the rose” and it’s true
This beautiful flower in any garden will only remind me of you.
The day we brought you home, you dazzled us from the start
Your gentle nature and cheerful spirit sure did melt my heart
Watching you waddle from behind was just the cutest sight
One leg was entirely black and the other completely white.
Determined to get inside the house, it wasn’t long before
You figured it out by walking back, against the sliding door
Dancing on your back legs wearing a tutu and hair in a bow
Dancing on your back legs wearing a tutu and hair in a bow
You won 1st prize for “best trick” one year at Busselton Show.
Even though we can no longer touch, we’ll never be apart
The memories and the love we shared will stay within my heart
The house seems quiet and empty, now that you have gone
But I know you are all well again, happy, pain free and strong.
Running with all the other dogs, including Candy too
One day, you will both look up and get a big surprise
For I’ll be there with arms wide open looking into your eyes.
