A Perfect Afternoon
My Perfect Afternoon
We loaded the car, Adi and I
Its top was down, temperature just right
We headed south, the breeze was blowing
Car purring, Mustang Convertible
Adi was purring too, things she loved
We were a pet team, looking forward
A certified Pet Therapy Pair
Adi was my love, my Beagle dog
Visitors, we checked in at the desk
With tail wagging lady petted her
We're ushered to the Alzheiimer's wing
The door opened, her tail wagged faster
One by one she visited them all
The residents told of their doggies
Left at home waiting for them to come
Little they knew, that would not happen
We spent the afternoon visiting
Make residents happy, some wiped tears
