PANSY


From the start she was a fighter
She gave all she had
Her mama fed her so little
The outcome was looking bad.

My own mom became a hero
She came to save the day
She fed her jars of baby food
Kept her alive that way.

Each day seemed a wonder
As she grew and learned to play
To watch her was such a joy
Nothing stood in her way.

I decided to bring her home
Though a puppy was not in my plan
I had raised other dogs and thought
I'll do the best I can

One day when I went out to fed her
She seemed quite sick
I rushed her to the vet
He said, "This disease is hard to lick."

She had Parvo and
The vet gave her little hope
I did just as he instructed
But at times was hard to cope

I gave her the meds 20 minutes apart
Just as I was told
The second day my determination
Was getting less bold

The Third day I expected
To go out and find her dead
Much to my suprise she was jumping
Upon me, very alive instead

She beat the odds, she made it
She's really a sight to see
We share a bond so special now
Little Pansy and me!
