I wrote this as a song for my friend Alicia's dog who was pretty sick recently, but I am in no way capable of putting it to music. Any musicians out there want to give it a try?
My miss may not be expensive, but
she's worth this world's unfolding to me
On bitter days and drearier nights,
her apricot smile's always at my side
She's furrier than some may like 'em
yet when her wag drags it takes
me down with its droop, and that's why
I'm missing my Miss Sadie
She's got an easy-and-gone temper.
There's no bit o' bite in her polite bark,
just a fine fondness to be pampered
and I'm happy to indulge all her whims.
She's furrier than some may like 'em
yet when her wag drags it takes
me down with its droop, and that's why
I'm missing my Miss Sadie
She got sick, now it's me that's hurting,
and while she's away doing another
kind of healing, I'm waiting here for her,
my poor missed Sadie, to come on back.
She's furrier than some may like 'em
yet when her wag drags it takes
me down with its droop, and that's why
I'm missing my Miss Sadie

This is lovely, Frances. Please share it put to music if you get the chance. I hope Miss Sadie gets better very, very soon.
Thanks Susan. I think Sadie is well on the way to getting better, after getting some much needed vet care and some tlc at home.
Francis,
what a wonderful tribute to an often forgotten friend.
Beautiful
Eileen

'it takes
me down with its droop'
