They named me Toto
God blessed the day
The day I found them
They were walking by
I crawled under the fence
And followed them
until they noticed
They picked me up
Took me in their arms
That made me happy
Could it be they'd take me
My sisters were gone
Girl puppies go first
But I was left
No one wanted me
Was there a chance
Could they take me
Sweet little girl
Her mother seemed kind
They took me around
My front door loomed
I was trembling
Would they ask my folks
Please please I want to go
Go home with them
Ask they did, they did
Can this wee puppy
Come home with us
We'll take good of her
We'll name her Toto
Feed and love her well
Start of new life for me
Happy family I'd found
And every day I felt
their love for me
Wag my tail Thank you God
for our loving home
Toto is my name

- My poem is true. Toto had a nice, happy long life with us. Eventually she died but went blind before that. I almost cried as I was reading Mrs. Jim the poem.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL !!!

Oh Jim, this makes me weepy.......the puppy finding a loving home and knowing the day inevitably came when Toto crossed the rainbow bridge - but years of happy memories between those two dates. Sigh. Happy Thanksgiving, Jim. We had ours a few weeks ago up here in Canada, early birds that we are.
A very sweet poem! Happy Thanksgiving, Jim, thanks so much for playing along. K.
What a great poem of the love of and for a dog. It is a pity they live such short lives, however there should be a lot of welcoming barks for me when I get upstairs!
I'm so glad your poem had a happy ending.
Such a very sweet poem!!
Such a lovely voice of that puppy... great perspective, and so happy he found a home with you.
Lucky little Toto ...... to have found you.
Oh, I love this so much, Jim!!! So sweet, so sweet and wonderful.
