Gussie Poem by valerie kidd

Guss, Dad's dog was a heck of a chap a loyal ole' friend and a goodfriend at that.
Dad sure loved him as we all did.
I think Dad even gave him the last name Kidd.
they were inseperable my dear Dad and Guss,
Dad just loved it when Guss got on the bus. T

hey traveled together down many old roads
they laughed and they played
Guss lightened Dads load.
Dad needed a friend and Gussie was there.
Nothing compares Gussies loyalty was rare.

The sad day came when Guss had to go,
heaven was calling the good ole boy home. I
it was'nt until the day finally came
and heaven was calling my fathers name.
I then realized why Guss had to go
it was to welcome his best friend home
