Banjo’s story must be
told
when life began the
tale unfolds
A puppy so playful;
he loved to have fun
chasing sticks, on
the run
from early morn till
day was done
He never met a
tastier treat
than Ol’ McDonald’s
“BON APPETIT”
from hash browns and
sausage
to ice cream and
cone
he often wished that
place was home
In early years this
kindly “gent”
brought a gift
from heaven sent
a gentle paw a tender
sigh
he brought a
smile
to those who
cried
elders loved this
handsome soul
in his presence they
had no woes
Oh to swim that lake
so grand
bubbles and waves
you bet I can
under the water he
swam with glee
Banjo was there you
better believe
Life is fragile and
age creeps in
the body weakened
he fought to win
Banjo never lost his
will
to let us know he
loved us still
A loving and gentle
spirit remains
in the hearts of your
family
BANJO is your
name
A
Shepherd’s Tale
