Oh Snuggles, Oh snuggles, How thine eyes sparkle
You're so warm and a trusting companion
While ribs sometimes heal I know your heart never will
Because of Justin and your gutwrenching condition
With the black river below and the howls that echo
through the darkest nights as I writhe in my slumber
to the cries and the screams of a small young puppy
as I dive in the icy cold water
Your body so cold and heartbeat so faint
as frozen as the tears on my cheek
I grab the water filled sack and slowly swim back
and hug you to my chest for the heat
Had I only one wish, one loving desire
As I cradle you on the snow covered shore
It would be to give you a home so that you'd never know
the feelings of cold or of hunger
I pray to God for a miracle,
please don't let him die
He's only experienced the harshness of life,
how can it be his time?
Does he not deserve a moment of warmth?
A moment of feeling wanted?
It's not his fault for trying to love
to be murdered by the one that he trusted.
The only answer I hear is the wind on my ear
that howls at the stars in the sky
it's calling it's calling and my tears are still falling
I'm a man, but I'll admit that I cried
His body lay broken, just like my heart
but I refuse to let him suffer in death
when I hear a faint whisper of a near silent whimper
and smiling I carry him back while he rests
Please tell me what you think

Very well written,i like the last two stanzas the best. when you say "His body lay broken,just like my heart but i refuse to let him suffer in death when i hear a faint whisper of a near silent whimper and smiling I carry him back while he rests" really shows that you loved your dog. :]

Well written, Natey, and entertaining.
