We Went Downstairs to Play Tonight

 

 



We went downstairs to play tonight.
Just me and Angus and Hershey,
and the Ball and Tuggy and Tie Dye Barbell-
Things cherished in the past
Things not seen in over a year

We went downstairs to play tonight
And paused to remember how
To share, to not eat toys, to fetch
A life once put on hold awakens
But my health might hinder it.

We went downstairs to play tonight.
We came up exhausted and happy.
We came up feeling the bond renewed
That wonderful feeling!
Our sleep was good until morning.
